Twitter Fact-Checks Pres. Trump Using Opposite Opinion

Twitter Government

Twitter took it upon itself to start editorializing the President’s tweets about mail-in voting ballots. The platform inserted a label saying “Get the facts about mail-in ballots” below the following tweet(s):

There is NO WAY (ZERO!) that Mail-In Ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent. Mail boxes will be robbed, ballots will be forged & even illegally printed out & fraudulently signed. The Governor of California is sending Ballots to millions of people, anyone…..

…living in the state, no matter who they are or how they got there, will get one. That will be followed up with professionals telling all of these people, many of whom have never even thought of voting before, how, and for whom, to vote. This will be a Rigged Election. No way!

– Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) 26 May 2020

The label that Twitter applied was a link to this page (archived) that contains a variety of sources that state the opposite opinion of Pres. Trump.
