EVERYONE (left, right, centre, the apolotical, random ass youtubers) manipulate the messages they put out into the ether (and printed material and soapboxes in pre-covid times for that matter).
Any thinking person looks beyond that.
The major problem with Trump is that he has lied and trash tweeted so farking consistently and for so such a long time that people no longer bother to even try when it comes to him.
By your definition, everything you see and hear from whatever source (unless you're there in person) is fake news.
