Trump Goofs on Where Tim Kaine Is From
US News ^ | 7/28/16 | AP

MIAMI (AP) — Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump took a shot Wednesday at Hillary Clinton's running mate, Democratic U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine, for doing a terrible job as governor of New Jersey.

The problem, of course, is that Kaine was governor of Virginia.

Her running mate, Tim Kaine, who by the way, did a terrible job in New Jersey," Trump said at a news conference in Miami. "He was not very popular in New Jersey, and he still isn't."

Trump might have confused Kaine with former Republican New Jersey Gov. Tom Kean, pronounced the same as Kaine. Kean led the state from 1982 to 1990 while Trump was building his casino empire in Atlantic City. Kaine was governor of Virginia from 2006 to 2010.

New Jersey also might have been on Trump's mind because its current governor, Republican Chris Christie, was among Trump's finalists for the vice presidential nod that ultimately went to Indiana Gov. Mike Pence.

It was a simple slip of the tongue... I saw this live when he said it. It's truly INSANE the big deal the leftist media make over every tiny mistake or sarcastic joke Donald Trump or any Republican makes!

Haha! Is this Trump’s way of belittling Kaine?

I think Joe Biden said “Tom” Kaine in his speech at the convention.

I’m thinking this was intentional, in order to belittle Kaine and underline the fact that Kaine is, in all honesty, pretty much a political nobody as far as the general public is concerned.

It’s spelled “Kean” but pronounced “Kane”. And of course he’s known as the head of the 9/11 commission.

Kaine worked his tail off to make VA more like NJ.

OMG! The horror!

That’s it. Trump is finished.

The press will never tell the real origin of Kaine, Clinton or any dem.

Because they came straight out of Hell!

Thanks, MSM, for giving Trump more air time and continuing to suck the oxygen away from Hillary.

Kaine is apparently not all that popular, except with ISIS and the Muzzie Broz.

Once again, free publicity. At this rate, he won’t have to spend a nickel of his own money to get elected.

She should too. It would be a walk in the park.

Hillary, what is your favorite brand of chocolate?
Hillary, where did you buy that lovely pantsuit?
Hillary, what is your favorite season of the year?
Hillary, what is your favorite restaurant to eat at with Huma?
Hillary, what is your favorite holiday?
Hillary, why are Republicans such sexists?
Hillary, what is your favorite flower?
Hillary, which dictator does Donald Trump like the best?
Hillary, will you bring back the stuff you stole from the White House and why did you lie about your emails? (Fox reporter dragged out.)
Back to serious questions:
Hillary, tell us all about your grandchildren.

On and on it will go. A rollicking good time.

People remember the 57 states, but a lot of people don’t remember that Obama said Hawaii is in Asia. He’s just not that sharp.
