Twitter slapped its first 'manipulated media' label on an edited video of Joe Biden retweeted by Donald Trump

was originally shared by White House head of social media Dan Scavino, and contains a video of Joe Biden which appears to show the Democratic candidate stumble during a speech and accidentally endorse Donald Trump for president, saying "we can only re-elect Donald Trump."

However, in reality Biden carried on to say: "We can only reelect Donald Trump if in fact we get engaged in this circular firing squad here. It's gotta be a positive campaign." Per the Post, Twitter applied its "manipulated media" tag to the tweet at around 5 p.m. on Sunday, roughly 18 hours after Scavino first posted it., designed to combat deceptively edited content. The tag doesn't seem entirely effective however, as a Twitter spokesperson told Business Insider a glitch meant people who searched for the tweet weren't being shown the tag.

yeah but that's also like the pot calling the kettle black.

Trump is more worried about re-election than he does about the coronavirus and the health of the American people...Trump and his administration are truly inept and disgusting...

IMPOTUS and the Staffer that manipulated the video should be suspended. Full stop.
