Washington (CNN)A new ad from President Donald Trump's campaign deceptively alters a photo of former Vice President Joe Biden campaigning outdoors in Iowa to make it seem as if Biden is "hiding" in his Delaware basement.

The ad also uses two other images in misleading ways: one of Biden at an Iowa house party and one of Biden praying at a Delaware church.

Biden is still an idiot. Nothing will change that. But Biden calling Trump a racist, without offering any proof is OK.

Just play a compilation of audio sound bites of Joe Biden while showing Biden trying to nuzzle that little girl that is trying to pull away from him.

Put those pieces together and be relentless about it.

Totally fair game for an election. CNN needs to get a grip.

I don’t think that’s exactly how Ran Dather and Mary Muddl’n put it when the W.Bush Texas national guard story was debunked.
Anybody remember?
