Donald Trump shares misleading video of King Charles and fainting worker
Key Points:
- US President Donald Trump shared an edited video on Truth Social that misleadingly shows King Charles walking away from a man who fainted during a 2020 visit, omitting footage of the King assisting the individual.
- The video montage contrasts clips of other world leaders appearing disrespectful with footage of Trump honoring fallen US troops, veterans, and law enforcement.
- The original clip of King Charles was from his time as Prince of Wales at a supermarket distribution center in Bristol during the Covid pandemic, where he stayed close to the fainted man and ensured medical attention.
- Buckingham Palace declined to comment on the edited video, and the White House has not responded to requests for comment.
- Trump has previously praised King Charles, calling him "the greatest king in my book" during the King's state visit to the US in April.
