***UPDATE: June 19, 5:45pm (Eastern)
Twitter has removed the video due to copyright violations because the people over at CNN are whiny little babies.
Carpe Donktum, the memesmith that made the original is now outright trolling CNN and it’s freaking glorious!
Fact check please @CNN pic.twitter.com/nv0m9gTNE8

END UPDATE***
The social media platform is continuing to target the President’s tweets.
This time, it’s over a meme.
The left absolutely hates memes. They’ve gone after the President over memes before.
- LMAO: Trump Tweets A Meme And Leftists And NeverTrumpers LOSE Their Damn Minds!
- LMAO: Trump TROLLS Biden With NICKELBACK In Hilarious Meme
- WATCH: CNN’s Don Lemon Is Triggered By A Meme — And It’s HILARIOUS
- Breaking: Did CNN Just Bully The Wrong Pro Trump Meme Maker?!
On Thursday evening, President Trump posted a video from his favorite meme-maker. It highlighted the way that the Media(D)–and CNN in particular–manipulates the truth in order to push the “America is racist” narrative.
Remember, CNN was pushing the alleged “racist” Covington kids story based on a short video clip and didn’t bother to do any fact-checking about what really happened. That’s why they were being sued for $275 million by Nick Sandmann and settled the lawsuit.
CNN also took a camera crew to confront a Trump-supporter for sharing a meme that was part of Russian “election meddling.”
CNN doesn’t seem to like memes very much.
The meme President Trump shared showed a viral video of two toddlers running on the sidewalk.
The video begins with ominous music and the video of a black toddler appearing to run away from a white toddler with the CNN chyron “terrified todler[sic] runs from racist baby” the chyron changes to read, “racist baby probably a Trump voter.”
It then changes to “what actually happened” which is the pair of friends running toward each other, hugging and then running off to play with one chasing the other while the song “Close to You” plays in the background.
The meme points out that “fake news” shows a portion of the story in order to push a narrative that America is racist.

Since Twitter removed it, the meme’s creator reposted it.
The funniest part of the last 24 hours was watching the news media analyze what the message was behind this meme… and not one of them bothered to ask me.pic.twitter.com/eF7iLGhxTN

CNN refuted the content of the meme.
CNN did cover this story – exactly as it happened. Just as we reported your positions on race (and poll numbers). We’ll continue working with facts rather than tweeting fake videos that exploit innocent children. We invite you to do the same. Be better. https://t.co/T1nBtejZta

So, CNN Communications admits that they’re going to continue to lie. Yeah, we didn’t need CNN Comms to tell us that.
CNN’s glory boy, Jim Acosta, quickly jumped on the manipulated media tag and spread the news.
Twitter labels this Trump tweet as “manipulated media.” pic.twitter.com/FbgCkIL5l2
— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) June 19, 2020
Some big-name Twitter users noted how incredibly stupid this is.
I agree with Twitter that much of CNN’s audience would not recognize this video by @CarpeDonktum as a joke. That’s what makes it a masterpiece. That plus the national press. And the Presidential tweet. https://t.co/sLo24hmSwG

We know that Acosta is a dunderhead but in this exchange with Kayleigh McEnany, he really outdoes himself with an absolutely spectacular failure to comprehend a meme.
Acosta claims that the meme that President Trump posted was “exploiting children to make some sort of crass political point” and that by posting the meme, Trump should own the label of “fake news.”
.@PressSec TORCHES @Acosta after he repeatedly asks questions because he can’t comprehend a meme.
CNN regularly twists the facts and puts misleading headlines on their network.
That was the point of the meme.. pic.twitter.com/IAjtkL2XDS

This is what happens when you have no sense of humor and have your head up your own ass and work for a media company that tried to destroy the life of a 16-year old boy because he wore a MAGA hat.
If you ever wondered why the left can’t meme, it’s because they simply don’t understand memes.
But someone is enjoying this little exchange…the meme-maker himself, Carpe Donktum.
Thank you Mr. President! https://t.co/V8E0Tk3ztQ

BREAKING: Brave Journalists debunk the idea that they misrepresent stories in the news by *checks notes* fact checking a meme, labeling it "manipulated media", and calling it racist.

By the way, Carpe has taken aim at CNN for years.
The left was dunkin’ on Donktum, but he was hitting right back.
Shut up Brian, everyone knows that you are pretending to be your wife to avoid a permanent Twitter suspension. https://t.co/8D1VEneEG9

Imagine stoking racial division for for years, and doing everything possible to make everyone hate eachother, and then yelling at the sky when President Trump calls you on it… with a meme.
Then further imagine this hissy fit

Listen Salami, the point of the video is that America is a great place, most people aren't racist, and the MSM only shows us the worst of humanity.
So basically the opposite of what you said.
I hope this helps. https://t.co/IENHm7DjNL

This coupled with his previous attempts to publish my home address, name, and those of my family members represent a very real threat to the safety of my family.
I would suggest that you have a talk with little Luke, unless you would like this to become a legal matter.
Thanks!

Carpe was having a blast.
TBH, this is the most fun I have had in months.

CNN: The most trusted name in news.
Also CNN: We had to frantically fact check a meme so that people wouldn't think we called a "todler" racist.
— Carpe Donktum🔹 (@CarpeDonktum) June 19, 2020
Thanks CNN, you gave my video three top 20(two top 5) trending spots, I haven't had this much fun since you freaked out about the Time Magazine Cover!
— Carpe Donktum🔹 (@CarpeDonktum) June 19, 2020
Goodnight everyone except the racist todlers at CNN.
— Carpe Donktum🔹 (@CarpeDonktum) June 19, 2020
CNN just did a 20 minute segment on my meme, condemning it for "exploiting children"
This was broadcast from the same studio in which CNN panelists and hosts called the Covington Kids NAZIS.

Being the glory boy that he is, Jim Acosta, is trying to get Twitter to label another video as “manipulated media” because of a clip of him speaking and another fake CNN chyron.
Straight out of 1984… This Trump tweet is not only bizarre. It’s bogus. I never did a live shot on this so obviously the chyron is a fake. pic.twitter.com/aUl9v91dfh
— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) June 19, 2020
This dude is so dense that at this point he’s getting negative self-awareness points.
But, no matter how much denser-than-lead Jim is, this isn’t about him at all.
Some Trump supporters and Donktum’s fellow memesters were praising the meme and blasting CNN.
Yeah, no s#%&, it's called a meme. Welcome to the Internet, genius.https://t.co/Df9RFHy4KG
