The technology has advanced far enough and is ant to be unleashed in the voters in this country. They can create anything they want now. Video of a speech with an opponent saying things they didn’t say will be produced and used by the Right.

Dems have to be prepared for this right now or things like this could decide the election.

This wasn’t the first time they’ve used doctored video, this is just starting. And although this I was debunked easily, know that there are millions of Americans who still think it’s a real video.
