As far as political videos go, this one is pretty funny. Monday morning, Trump tweeted a video (not a product of his official re-election campaign) which shows "Obama" and a few other guys watching a game. During the commercial break, clips of Biden at his weirdest, the guys look at "Obama" who shrugs and goes, "what?" Obama's head is clearly superimposed on another's body in what was originally an Allstate ad.

Joe Biden has been struggling for visibility lately. The Coronavirus crisis has relegated him to the sidelines as Trump takes front and center on television, sometimes for hours a day. Biden has turned to live streaming addresses. It has not gone well.

A new video ad the Joe Biden campaign is sharing on Twitter contains at least two obvious falsehoods. It pushes the false narrative that Trump called Coronavirus a hoax, and it rehashes the debunked 'very fine people on both sides' moment from Charlottesville. In spite of these inaccuracies, Twitter will not label the ad as deceptive.
