This led Twitter to flag it as “manipulated media” and countless mainstream media sources to lose their minds by publishing breathless pieces about Trump and the meme.
Donald Trump has done it again. Late Tuesday night, Trump posted a meme of Joe Biden's cringe moment playing music off of his phone at a campaign event. But instead of "Despacito," the meme shows Biden playing NWA's "F*ck tha Police."

This led Twitter to flag it as "manipulated media" and countless mainstream media sources to lose their minds by publishing breathless pieces about Trump and the meme.

For those who have been paying attention, this is another net win for Trump. Not only does the meme point to Biden's spectacular failure to support law enforcement at a time when they are being targeted and shot in the streets, it also caused Twitter and the media to amplify on of the most cringe-worthy Biden moments of the 2020 Presidential campaign so far.

In the original clip, Biden is seen pandering to Latinos by playing a Spanish pop song off of his phone by feebly dancing.
At this point, it's astonishing that Twitter and the media haven't clued in to Trump's meme game. Every time he wants to amplify a message, all he has to do is post an effective meme and the media does the job for him.
