Twitter on Wednesday declined to take down what the company said was "manipulated media" that was retweeted by President Donald Trump.
In a video shared by the president, Democratic nominee Joe Biden appears to play "Fuck tha Police," a protest song by hip hop group N.W.A.
In the original video, however, Biden actually plays "Despacito," a song by Luis Fonsi.
Twitter quickly flagged Trump's video as "manipulated media" with a link to the original video. The social media company, however, did not remove the president's tweet.
Twitter users reacted by slamming the company. Read some of the tweets below.
