In a first, Twitter marks Donald Trump’s tweet as ‘potentially misleading’

For the first time, Twitter has flagged some of President Donald Trump’s tweets with a fact-check warning.

On Tuesday, Twitter added a warning phrase to two Trump tweets that called mail-in ballots “fraudulent” and predicted that “mail boxes will be robbed,” among other things. 

“Get the facts about mail-in ballots,” read the message beneath each tweet. It linked to a curated fact-check page the platform had created filled with further links and summaries of news articles.

Trump tweeted to tell that it is freedom of speech and as a President, he will not let it happen.
