Apologies if this detail has been discussed as part of the large conversation, but did anyone else catch the subtle nod during the recent (March 7th) "surprise" for the White House tour group of children? [NBC News]

No, I'm not talking about Trump purposefully standing in front of a portrait of Clinton, arms stretched out like the "Scale of Justice" [Link]
-
No, not that the tour group happened to be a huge group of children [Link]
-
And no, not the so-called "666" / "I'm OKAY" sign flashed by the kid Trump "chooses" to come up with him for the photo op. [Link]
I'm talking about the sweatshirt. The team. The LIONS. As in Penn State Nittany Lions, you know, the football team coached by Jo Paterno and Jerry Sandusky. THAT'S the jersey worn by a child chosen at whim to stand in front of a portrait of Clinton in a safe embrace by the Orange Monster -- [Yeah, I can hate the guy and still respect his game and plays. It's called being a critical thinker.]
This may help explain why Sandusky Sr. was transferred OUT of a maximum security prison to a safer, more comfortable place. [USA Today]
Fingers crossed. The noose is tightening.

Interesting to think about for sure even if it's not a Penn State shirt, the innuendo is plausible enough. Some people obviously made the association as illustrated by this very thread topic. The kids hand gesture may very well him being the funny guy but it's a very specific thing to come up with during a spur of the moment photo-op of this nature.
The white power, pepe, 666 is associated with it because that's what's spread around the Internet to get people talking and provide yet another way to attack someones character. The kid has been accused of throwing a 666 or a white power hand symbol.....that's absurd, for real. We are left with a reference to everyone's favorite frog at the moment "PEPE", or "OK". In either case, why? Surely his teacher or parents asked why he did that.
My rational side say's it's all coincidence and the kid was just being funny. Kids and the Internet these days, am I right? My other rational side say's "Well, that IS kinda weird, what if.....?" Annnnnd conspiracy born. (yeah, a guy can have two sides, lol)
Some may argue the hand gesture symbolizes the Eye of Providence and the kid was tipped of ahead of time to do it. He was sitting right in the front to make him easy to spot by the President. Then, Trump just had to pick the kid with the Lions shirt.
