Trump Shares Edited Video of King Charles

Is this disinformation from a self-styled fake news critic or just a harmless joke blown out of proportion?

The Spin


Anti-Trump narrative

It is beyond ironic that Trump, who routinely blasts the media as fake news, is now pushing doctored footage of King Charles. Editing a clip to smear a head of state as callously ignoring a man in a medical emergency isn't satire; it's disinformation aimed at a close ally. Anyone demanding honesty from the press should be held to that same standard.

Pro-Trump narrative

Nobody has shown more genuine respect for the British monarchy than President Trump. His consistent praise of Charles and defense of the royal family against those who have disrespected the institution should speak louder than any joke video ever could. The manufactured outrage over a lighthearted clip insults everyone's intelligence.
