They edited him to be innacurate. Like for example how they made it look like he supported white supremacy by cutting out the latter half of what he was saying where he said "I am not talking about white supremacists, they should be totally condemned"

Yeah! That one time, in Canada!

Got any reference I can use to look this up, because it smells fishy.

Whereas I lived through the first Trump admin as an adult, and I could see the difference between what was reported (which mostly made sense) and what Trump stated himself, which was stream-of-consciousness gibberish.

Don't try to gaslight anyone on this issue. The press cleaned up what Trump said, and reported the cleaned-up version. The worst thing they could have done was report Trump's exact words.
