Trump Gets Blunt Reminder Of His Own Past Fumbles After Accusing Biden Of Calling Him 'George'

On October 26, President Donald Trump tweeted Democratic candidate Joe Biden called him by the wrong name, heavily implying Biden wasn't mentally fit to be President.

The President was likely taking his cue from Fox News, which ran the story as if it were a major scandal.


Of course, the truth was the President's clip was deceptively edited to make it seem like he said the wrong name.

In truth, Biden was speaking with actor George Lopez and simply responding to a question.

Turns out George Lopez's name is George.

Biden got the name right, unlike when Trump called his wife "Melanie."

Biden's exact words were:

"This is the most consequential—not because I'm running, but because of who I'm running against—this is the most consequential election in a long, long, long time and the character of the country, in my view, is literally on the ballot."
"What kind of country are we going to be? Four more years of—George.... George—we are going to find ourselves in a position where if Trump gets elected, we're going to be in a different world."

Twitter felt they ought to remind President Trump he's been known to mess up a few names on occasion.



Who could forget Tim Apple?

Or Rick Gates?

Or Trump's own wife, Melanie?

Of course, this didn't stop other conservatives like the President's son from continuing to spread the misinformation.

But the internet's fact checkers sided firmly with Biden.


Very few people online seemed swayed by the President's misleading arguments.



As always, we should all be taking the claims of President Trump with a grain of salt.

The Trump campaign seems focused on Biden's age being a disqualifying factor for holding political office. Donald Trump is only 3 1/2 years younger and Mitch McConnell is 9 months older than Joe Biden.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
