President Trump's reelection campaign is venting frustration with Twitter after the social media giant refused to apply its "manipulated media" warning tags to two new videos released by the Democratic National Committee (DNC).
It's the second time in a week that Twitter has shut down requests from the Trump campaign to sanction Democratic attack ads that the president's allies say were deceptively edited.
Twitter recently slapped a manipulated media tag on a pro-Trump ad, leading to allegations from the president's campaign that the company is only enforcing its standards in favor of Democrats.
"Twitter's arbitrary rules only seem to apply to the Trump campaign," said spokesman Andrew Clark.

Twitter/Google should not tag factual ads from anybody.
