This week, President Donald Trump shared that he has misspelled his wife Melania’s name as “Melody” on social media due to the autocorrect on “these crazy machines that we use.”
During a May event honoring military mothers, Trump noted that an attendee was named Melody, and shared his own personal connection to the name: “I love the name Melody because, for a long time, you know, they have spell correct and word correct on these crazy machines that we use to put out Truths, or, they used to be called, tweets,” he began.
Trump claimed that “every time I wrote ‘Melania,’ it would correct to ‘Melody.’”
“She’s been called ‘Melody’ a lot,” Trump claimed. “I apologize.”
This is not the first time this spelling mistake has apparently happened. Trump once referred to Melania as Melanie in a 2018 post about her hospitalization.
