A staffer for a congressional Democrat tweeted out an edited video of an event at the Trump White House, where President Donald Trump allegedly ignored a wheelchair-bound child when he shook hands with everyone else.

The irony is that when the allegation was debunked, the staffer deleted the original tweet and apologized, “Deleted an earlier tweet because it turned out to be missing some context. Apologies.”

Another fake news outrage over a nothing burger.
