When your campaign begins manipulating videos and fabricating remarks to disparage your rival, you know it is going south. And the Biden-Harris campaign is doing precisely that.
Biden-Harris HQ, the official quick response account for the Biden-Harris campaign, is misrepresenting Donald Trump’s remarks on social media and sharing shoddy footage of him.
For instance, the Biden-Harris HQ account released stolen video from Trump’s Palm Beach fundraiser earlier this month.
From this video, two things are clear. Firstly, the video divides the address into two poorly edited segments, failing to inform Trump’s wealthy supporters that “we gave you the greatest tax cuts in history.” “We did the largest tax reduction in history,” he stated, referring to the achievements of his first term.
The Biden-Harris HQ account released another edited video of Trump’s fundraiser on Monday. This one uses two different parts of the speech to make it look like Trump assures his rich backers that they will receive tax breaks.
However, the Biden account continued to use the altered video in subsequent posts:
Additionally, Joe Biden’s personal account shared one of the manipulated videos:
The Biden campaign has frequently used manipulated footage to criticize Trump. When Trump boasted that his administration had “accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country” during his speech before the UN General Assembly on September 25, 2018, the Biden campaign in 2019 used edited video and audio to falsely suggest that attendees laughed at him, even though that was not the case.
In other instances, Democrats have edited texts and recordings to wrongly criticize Trump. When the partisan January 6 committee held public hearings regarding the Capitol violence, they showed edited video and text exchanges.

Does X/Twitter plan to flag these edited videos? Will the Biden campaign face consequences for their overtly misleading claims? We at PJ Media will not stop calling out the Biden campaign for its lies, but only time will tell.
