Morse now has some regrets about the role that his video has played in building up Republican myths about widespread election misconduct in communities of color.
“The video doesn’t lie. That video was honest at the time, but I would also argue that was more of an anomaly than an everyday occurrence,” Morse said in an interview this week.
“I defend democracy, I defend the freedom of the media, but I don’t defend Donald Trump twisting something to stoke fears into Republicans,” he said. “I sincerely hope that no one is hurt and I hope there’s no violence on Election Day because of that.”
