Article is long enough and in date, no copyvio detected. Hooks are cited and article meets policies. Image is claimed as freeuse. Looks good to go, pending QPQ. As a sidenote on the hooks, I'd prefer active voice, to make the fact about the subject, rather than the relation to Trump. And also to avoid the abbreviation of Col. for those who might not be familiar with military ranks. So something along the lines of:

ALT2 ... that Colonel Jason Fettig (pictured) is Donald Trump's official musical adviser?
ALT3 ... that Jason Fettig's (pictured) advancement to colonel was the first military promotion personally performed by Donald Trump? Spokoyni (talk) 12:35, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Thanks Spokoyni! The QPQ is done now. I very much prefer your suggested Alts to the original ones. Chetsford (talk) 20:44, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Approving, as I think this ought to be ok as I merely shifted the word order in the hooks. The promoter might play with them a bit more if they feel it necessary. Looks good to go! Spokoyni (talk) 22:30, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

I agree about putting the bolded subject toward the front of the hook. But this is a short hook, and in the image slot, saying "Trump" first really catches the eye (it caught mine). Yoninah (talk) 22:30, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
