Twitter just removed a deranged Donald Trump tweet
Last night Twitter placed a warning label on a Donald Trump tweet because it contained a doctored video that was aimed at creating the false impression that CNN had reported a false story about a “racist baby.” Then earlier today, Facebook deleted Trump’s video entirely, due to a copyright claim filed by the toddler’s parent. Now Twitter has done the same:
That’s right, Donald Trump’s tweet is such an egregious violation, it got a warning label for being fake, and it got removed for being illegal. We can’t recall having ever seen this combination of crackdowns on the same tweet.
