Скачать или смотреть Maryland Gov. Wes Moore faces backlash over alleged edited clip of Trump remarks

Governor Wes Moore's social media post has sparked controversy by suggesting that Donald Trump called Baltimoreans "natural born killers," using an edited video that altered the context of Trump's remarks about recent arrests in Washington, D.C.

Moore's post included the statement, "Do not listen to what Donald Trump called you yesterday when the president from the Oval Office calls you natural born killers, children who are born to be violent. I say this I respect the office, but I will never honor ignorance."

Angelette Aviles, of the Angelette Aviles Show on WBAL, addressed the issue after listeners accused her of lying about the incident. Aviles asked for evidence of Trump's alleged statement, promising to retract her comments if proven wrong. Instead, she received Moore's edited post, which she described as an advertisement rather than factual evidence.

Aviles played both Moore's edited version and Trump's original comments on her show, highlighting the discrepancy. Trump's actual statement was about individuals arrested in Washington, D.C., whom he described as "born to be criminals" and "hard core," but did not mention Baltimore.
Listeners called into Aviles's show to express their opinions. Dante from Baltimore said, "I am sick of these guys because they come with lies. And once you tell a lie and the media don't fact check these guys, then you got people coming to people like me.

The incident has raised questions about political tactics and the importance of truthfulness. Aviles noted, "When politicians do this, they might win the battle at the moment, but they lose something bigger. And that is credibility."

As Moore and Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott prepare for a public safety tour in Park Heights, Aviles expressed hope that someone would ask Moore about the edited video. She emphasized the need for honesty and action, saying, "Baltimore families can't raise their kids on headlines. They need honesty and they need action."

The debate continues as listeners weigh in on the implications of Moore's actions and the broader issue of political spin.
