Twitter has applied its first "manipulated media" label to a video retweeted by President Donald Trump, as first reported by The Washington Post.
The tweet was originally shared by the White House's head of social media, Dan Scavino, and it contains a video that appears to show the Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden stumble during a speech and accidentally endorse President Donald Trump, saying, "We can only reelect Donald Trump."
In reality, however, Biden went on to say: "We can only reelect Donald Trump if in fact we get engaged in this circular firing squad here. It's got to be a positive campaign."
