Twitter has flagged as “manipulated media” a Trump campaign tweet in which it intentionally took a portion of a sentence Biden said completely out of context.

While Biden *did* say “You won’t be safe in Joe Biden’s America,” the entire context, according to the Washington Post, is:
“Since they have no agenda or vision for a second term, Trump and Pence are running on this, and I find it fascinating: ‘You won’t be safe in Joe Biden’s America.’ And what’s their proof? The violence we’re seeing in Donald Trump’s America.”
The Trump campaign later tweeted that the original tweet was “a joke” after numerous media outlets picked up on the out-of-context clip.
