Twitter, Facebook remove 'racist baby' video posted by Trump
Source: NBC News
Facebook and Twitter both removed a video on Friday of a racist baby posted to President Trumps social media accounts the previous day, in response to a copyright claim from one of the childrens parents.
Twitter labeled the video tweeted by President Donald Trump on Thursday night as manipulated media because it attributes to news media a nonexistent story on race.
A Facebook spokesperson told NBC News in a statement, "We received a copyright complaint from the rights holder of this video under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and have removed the post.
A Twitter spokesperson provided a similar statement: Per our copyright policy, we respond to valid copyright complaints sent to us by a copyright owner or their authorized representatives.

Maybe with comments from the parents. Together with an anti-racism message about how nobody starts off as a racist. And as the ad runs through with the white child chasing the black child, the image could again go b&w, with ominous music, to remind people of what the R's did, with a message....some do grow up as racists and use innocent children as props to push their racist messages. Or something like that.
But I don't expect Democrats to ever be that bold in their ads.
