President Donald Trump on Sunday posted a message on his Truth Social website thanking the B-2 pilots who took part in this weekend’s attack on Iran.But the president’s message had one key flaw: He misspelled his own name. “The GREAT B-2 pilots have just landed, safely, in Missouri. Thank you for a job well done!!!” Trump wrote, and then signed his message in all caps: “DONAKD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!”Trump deleted the message and replaced it with a corrected version, but a website that archives his posts shows the typo. Trump has a long and colorful history of typo-ridden social media posts, including the infamous “covfefe” message of 2017, along with his references to a “stollen” election, “Wirch Hunt” and “hamberders.” He’s bungled his own name before, referring to himself in 2019 as “Donald Ttump,” and that of his wife, whom he called “Melanie” Trump in 2018. It’s not clear if Trump typed the message himself. A former aide, Madeleine Westerhout, testified during his criminal trial last year that when Trump was on Twitter, he preferred to dictate his messages, down to his trademark use of capitalizations and exclamation points.Footage released last year also showed him dictating and supervising his social media posts. Trump’s critics called him out over the awkward typo: This is the man calling for regime change and with his hand on the nuclear codes, marching us into war: DONAKD J. TRUMP. To my Republican colleagues with the power and numbers to stop this, what say you? pic.twitter.com/y22RVIw5Ns— Rep.

TRUMP.” He can’t even spell his own name. pic.twitter.com/SqnZRaZE3L— Harry Sisson (@harryjsisson) June 22, 2025Bring back covfefe— Karly Kingsley (@karlykingsley) June 22, 2025Close
