If the content of President Donald Trump's tweets isn't enough to tip readers off that they're given in the moment, the typos should be.
From "hamberders" to "covfefe" and numerous other mistakes, the President's Twitter typos are a regular occurrence, but a recent one is making waves.
After his sparsely-attended rally at the BOK center in Tulsa, Oklahoma this past weekend, the President took to Twitter to brag about the virtual viewers of the rally.
See if you can spot the typo.
WOW! The Trump Rally gives @FoxNews the “LARGEST SATURDAY NIGHT AUDIENCE IN ITS HUSTORY". Isn't it amazing that virtually nobody in the Lamestream Media is reporting this rather major feat!

Trump bragged that—though the in-person attendance of the rally was abysmal compared to what the campaign expected—the rally gave Fox News its largest audience in "HUSTORY."
People didn't hesitate to mock him—including anti-Trump Republican PAC, The Lincoln Project.

Hustory will not be kind to you

After the infamous "covfefe" typo, the President implied that it was deliberately left as some sort of cryptic message—an excuse many in his base accepted.
Who can figure out the true meaning of "covfefe" ??? Enjoy!

In response to "hustory," some of his more ardent supporters assured that the President didn't make a mistake.
He misspells words on purpose. Those who are woke understand. But guess what? He's still YOUR PRESIDENT.

#Hustory def: a cheap plot to make the media go crazy. Hasn't anyone by now figure out the president misspells things on purpose? The trick will not detract his supporters, it only riles up those who do not. Better infamy than obscurity, and we are all playing along. pic.twitter.com/wGjjh9NT24

#hustory typo was on purpose. You wouldn't have paid attention to the tweet otherwise, but all of you have now seen it and are helping trend it! Say what you may, the president is not an idiot

Regardless, the President's emphasis on virtual viewers is most likely an attempt to justify the small turnout.
After weeks of boasting record high reservations at over one million, only 6,200 people watched the event from the 19,200 person arena.
It's not something Trump's critics intend to let him forget.
Trump's Tulsa rally? A failure.
His return to Washington Humiliating.
His confession that he delayed COVID testing?
Damning. https://t.co/9kgitvuR3m

It doesn't matter, your rally was empty and poor. Americans are tired of your poor WH adm. @washingtonpost, go back to Trump University so you can spell correctly. @FoxNews @washingtonpost @IvankaTrump https://t.co/WbJjuSdVY3

Trump will soon speak to an audience of three thousand students in a Teens for Trump rally in Arizona, where new cases of the virus have seen a massive uptick.
