During the campaign event, Biden began playing Fonsi’s hit 2017 song “Despacito” from what appeared to be his mobile phone, raising the device to his lectern’s microphones and bobbing his head along to the music.

But in the edited video retweeted by the president  which Twitter labeled as “manipulated media” — the song played by Biden is the 1988 protest rap “F--- tha Police” by the hip hop group N.W.A. “What is this all about?” Trump wrote in an accompanying message.

In recent months, Trump’s preferred social media platform has taken a more aggressive approach to countering posts by the president that promote misleading information or violate the platform’s content policies.

Twitter appended fact-check warnings to a pair of Trump’s tweets in May about mail-in voting, prompting the president to sign an executive order targeting social media companies.
