Twitter flags Trump tweet doctoring video of 'toddler besties' as 'manipulated media'

Twitter flags Trump tweet doctoring video of 'toddler besties' as 'manipulated media'

Twitter is running out of labels to slap on President Trump's tweets. 

The social media site flagged a recent Trump tweet 'manipulated media,' per its rule that forbids users to "deceptively promote synthetic or manipulated media that are likely to cause harm."

The tweet in question contains a doctored video of the toddler besties encounter that went viral in 2019. In Trump's version, the video has a fake CNN label and purports to show CNN as misidentifying one of the toddlers as "racist."

If you click on the "Manipulated media" flag, you'll get a quick fact check on the fake video shared by Trump.
