I’m not denying that the photo is obviously edited. I was not saying the photo was edited accidentally. I’m repudiating that it was done with the intention of making the beard look longer and darker.
Considering you made this comment after I added my clarification, I have to assume it was made purely in bad faith.
Honestly, if this was the worst they could do, this guy is either absurdly photogenic or never spoke in public. Last local election two candidates for some seat in the city council or something mailed out some truly unflattering photos of each other, both clearly taken in the midst of a passionate speech.

Sure man, famously political groups have never edited photos for gain.
