Hillary Clinton's latest campaign ad tears into Donald Trump on foreign policy. And briefly, it put an image of the presumptive GOP nominee making out with Russian President Vladimir Putin front and center.
When the ad was first released, it showed a now-famous mural of the two men locking lips, with bolded text accusing Trump of "cozying up to dictators," followed by Trump's positive review of Putin's leadership and North Korea's approving remarks about the possibility of a Trump presidency. (The kissing mural comes in around the 0:23 mark.)
But shortly after the video was released, and with no explanation, the image of Putin and Trump kissing was replaced with a photo of Trump standing by himself giving the thumbs up. Check out the new version:
