Confusing 9/11 with 7 Eleven

This one happened during a campaign rally in 2016, before Trump took office. But it’s too outrageous not to include.

“I was down there and I watched our police and our firemen down there on 7/11,” Trump told his at the rally in Buffalo, New York.

“Down at the World Trade Centre, right after it came down, I saw the greatest people I’ve ever seen in action”.

‘Thighland’

During a speech at a Whirlpool factory in Ohio, the president managed to get the name of an entire country wrong. No small feat, even for a man who once spelt his own wife’s name incorrectly (see below).

Trump referred to a place called “Thighland”, when complaining about US corporations moving jobs abroad.

Perhaps the president experienced a Freudian slip, with his unconscious mind bringing him back to a gentleman’s club he once visited? Who knows.

Anyhow, we’re pretty sure Thighland isn’t even a country, or a word, for that matter.

Spelling his own wife’s name incorrectly
We mentioned this one earlier; here are the full details.

In May 2019, Trump’s beloved wife Melania was admitted to hospital for a week to have treatment for a kidney condition.

Trump welcomed the first lady back to the White House with a celebratory tweet.

“Great to have our incredible First Lady back home in the White House,” he wrote. “Melanie is feeling and doing really well. Thank you for all of your prayers and best wishes!”

Top marks for the thought Donald, not so much for the spelling.

Puerto Rico

“I left Texas, and I left Florida, and I left Louisiana, and I went to Puerto Rico,” Trump said at a press conference in October 2017, addressing the devastation caused by hurricane Mariah a few weeks previous.

“And I met with the president of the Virgin Islands,” Trump added, seemingly unaware that the Virgin Islands is a US territory, making him their president.

We can only assume that he intended to say that he had met with the governor of the Virgin Islands.

But if the proceeding three years are anything to go by, you might not want to rule out Trump having a meeting with himself in the future.

Covfefe

An instant classic that baffled the world for days. This one speaks for itself.

Unpresidented vs unprecedented

One of Trump’s most infamous Twitter typos happened when he described China seizing a US Navy drone as an “unpresidented” act.

He subsequently rectified the tweet, changing the spelling to unprecedented, but not before eagle-eyed Twitter users spotted the original mistake.

Spanish Flu

At a White House press briefing, Mr Trump inaccurately claimed that the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic helped end WWII – a conflict that didn’t even start until two decades later.

White House officials later said that the president had been referring to WWI, which ended in the same year that the pandemic started.

But whether the flu did bring an end to the war, as Trump suggested, is up for debate.

“It struck all the armies and might have claimed toward 100,000 fatalities among soldiers overall during the conflict while rendering millions ineffective,” according to academics Peter C Wever and Leo van Bergen.

“Yet, it remains unclear whether 1918 pandemic influenza had an impact on the course of the First World War.”

Gotta love the rabid libs here needing to respond to another one of Biden's gaffs, worried, want to change your early vote? It may be possible, depending on where you live, quite a few states allow that.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Early voting is surging. The GOP is catching up, by the way, but there was a spike on Google just after the final presidential debate. People were searching for how to change their votes.
Early voting usually breaks heavily Democratic. Tens of millions have already cast their ballots, so take what you will from this, but Biden’s last debate performance was bad. He looked tired, weak, and avoided really getting into any substance, whereas Trump was aggressive, but calm, collected, and most of all prepared. He eased back a bit from his chaotic first debate and allowed Joe to speak. As we predicted, Joe hung himself, especially when he announced late in the debate that he would lay the groundwork for the destruction of the oil industry. If Joe is for that, you know he’ll kill fracking too. He was also knocked off course with the revelations about his son, his shady deals, and Joe’s alleged involvement in them—using the office of the vice presidency to enrich his family, even going rogue to ensure those interests are protected.

Anyone interested in facts is a rabid lib--in the mind of a mentally ill paranoid.

The point is, when Trump gaffs, which is quite often, few if anyone here posts it up. The fact is all people, especially those with a camera on them 24/7, will have a gaff recorded. It happens. You make a point of posting Biden's gaffs, but not Trump's. Why is that? Because you are the rabid one?

Don’t forget, Trump criticized Obama’s handling of the last virus—then dismantled the office that could have helped, ignored the scientific advice he got from talented people, put Pence in charge of the COVID task force, and lied to the American people about the risks.


Not rounding the corner. But let’s focus on Biden’s gaffe on a name—not Trump’s malfeasance.

mat-ty, don't you see that an increasing number of Covid-19 cases is a problem?

Yet, maybe this is about the fantasy idea that Donald Trump is finally addressing the Covid-19 pandemic. Don't worry, it will disappear any day now, right?

Matty

I visited South Dakota in July (I grew up there). NO ONE was wearing a mask or social distancing. Now, the Dakotas have the highest rate of CV infection in the nation and the death count is rising. Hospitals (my brother works at one) are being overwhelmed.

They were warned. The GOP Governors have refused to shut down and even take minimal precautionary measures. This is a mess brought on by The belief in what TRUMP espouses.

People are going to die and you just don’t get it...
