Doctored campaign video featuring US vice-president reposted by Tesla chief executive watched 128m times

Musk reposted a manipulated Harris campaign video on Friday evening in which a fake Harris voiceover says “I was selected because I am the ultimate diversity hire” and that anyone who criticises her is “both sexist and racist”.
