The Bulwark is Bill Kristol and Charlie Sykes' website and they're both never-trumpers. I mean, it's a decent photoshop but not great. Something someone with a job in media could probably whip up on their own. The tweet went fairly viral so there's that.

Ah, looks like it was a joke and Swift fell for it
