I love wonkette's take on it.
In this case, that's pretty scary, because the lies aren't so blatant. The ability to point out that the tweets don't match the context of the videos requires an understanding of what is actually going on. If someone hasn't been paying attention to what has been happening in the past 4 months regarding Trump's connection to Russia, his tweets, taken at face value, could seem perfectly honest.
Does that account do anything other than spread falsehoods?
