I’ll be drinking champagne.

[going hot]

Misunderestimated.

“unprecedented.” Doesn’t someone proofread the Tweets? Or did spellcheck or voice recognition do this?

[Steve_Seattle]

Here we go again - the same press who ignored Obama’s “I visited 57 states, and “speaking Austrian,” and “corpse-man,” and his rambling, incoherent 40-second brain-freeze at a 2008 town hall, and his mistranslated “re-set button,” are jumping all over this.

[RC one]

This is a bush league trolling error. he needs to learn that spelling matters when you’re trolling on the internet. This is especially true when you’re trolling a foreign cuntry like China. He has to learn that spelling mistakes can be used by you or against you.

[Blue Jays]

He should have left it posted as is without editing.
When the media "called" him on it, he could then respond:

"...I know what I wrote. Believe me, our wonderful country has been unpresidented for nearly a decade.
Let's Make America Great Again..."

This is especially true when you’re trolling a foreign cuntry[sic] like China. He has to learn that spelling mistakes can be used by you or against you.

Let me be the first.

[Feckless]

The same people who didn’t have a problem with 58 states, the Austrian language, and pronouncing “corpsman” “Corpse man”

[Steve_Seattle]

"But Trump is no Dan Quail."

Quayle's "potatoe" gaffe came from a cue-card prepared by a teacher, and he assumed it was correct. Actually, I think "potatoe" is a correct albeit archaic spelling for "potato."

Quayle was a reasonably smart guy with a law degree, but that didn't prevent the bully press from forever treating him like a dunce over this one incident.

Never forget: the press are bullies. Trump, at least, will swing back.

if i had a nickel for every time the spell checker got away from me, i would be as rich as he is... (or maybe not)

Libs act like it's a cardinal sin. They forget that King Putt has made plenty of errors through his term.

[stars & stripes forever]

I don’t care how he spelled it. TRUMP meant it, and CHINA knows he meant it.

[RC one]

right. Did you see what I just did there? They can be used by you or against you.

[Steve_Seattle]

"Let me be the first."

This just shows that everyone - even people with normally excellent grammar and spelling - seems to screw-up when typing emails and other on-line messages. I do it all the times.

But the media are predictably jumping all over this Trump gaffe, even as they ignored Obama's gaffes (57 states, corpse-man, Austrian language, mistranslated re-set button, and so forth).

[txhurl]

What’s everyone talking about? China stealing vessels from us.

Mission Accomplished.

[Buttons12]

Misunderestimated, yes, in order to be potatoed.

Spelling isn’t respected much lately, but it’s only reportable when a Republican fluffs it.

[Moonman62]

So now this story gets a lot more coverage than it would.

[Bernard]

Getting back to the actual story, we deploy a drone in enemy waters and there is no self-destruct mechanism on it? Who agreed to that contract?

[Candor7]

Just send out another underwater drone, but load it with
50 pounds of Semtex with an air activated detonator.

[ScaniaBoy]

We’ve been unpresidented since Usurpation Day.

And on January 20th you will be re-Presidented! Congrats!

[Let's Roll]

And I would imagine the spell checker/auto correct on any device Trump uses would always default to “president” because that word is used so much on his devices.
