gay dad of a toddler that appears in a viral video has slammed Donald Trump for lying and promoting a doctored version of the clip.The original version of the video became a viral sensation last year when it showed Maxwell, who is black, and his friend Finnegan, who is white, running down a street toward one another to hug.
The clip became an uplifting symbol of hope for love and American unity.Leave it to Donald Trump, however, to mock and manipulate that hope for his own purposes.
This month, he tweeted out a doctored version of the video which showed Maxwell running away from Finnegan. The doctored video also used the CNN logo and fake headline “Terrified toddler runs from racist baby.” Twitter eventually flagged the tweet as deceptive.
