Trump Repeatedly Mispronounced 'Burisma' At Rally And Tried To Pass It Off As Purposeful—But Nobody's Buying It

Trump Repeatedly Mispronounced 'Burisma' At Rally And Tried To Pass It Off As Purposeful—But Nobody's Buying It

Just two weeks after the President tested positive for the virus, he's back on the campaign trail sparking fears among many that he is creating super-spreader events.

Seeing pictures of his Wednesday, October 14, rally in Iowa, it seems many of those fears were justified. The massive crowds were packed together tightly, with very few people seeming to wear masks.



During the rally itself, the President seemed to be having trouble speaking.

At one point, Trump was unable to correctly pronounce "Burisma," the name of a Ukranian company at the center of a Trump-driven conspiracy theory involving Joe Biden.

Of course, Trump's wild and debunked conspiracies will not be getting nearly as much attention as his inability to speak coherently.



Many on Twitter wondered whether the President had fully recovered from his illness.



Others felt Trump's mispronunciations were pretty much par for the course.



Unfortunately, there will likely be many Trump supporters who will believe the President's wild conspiracy theories.

"Burisma" wasn't the only word Trump mangled at the event.


The President will likely mispronounce many more words in the weeks leading up to election day, but voters have pretty much accepted that as par for the course with Donald Trump.

Pope Leo's Brother Sparks Outrage Over Vile Posts About Nancy Pelosi And Parents Of Trans Kids

The brother of Robert Prevost, a Chicago-born Roman Catholic Augustine cleric who last week became the newly-elected Pope Leo XIV, is facing heated criticism after some of his older Facebook posts resurfaced and revealed that he'd shared a video calling Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi a "drunk c**nt" as well as a transphobic meme about transgender children.

For instance, in an April 23 post, Prevost claimed that former President Obama desired “the total destruction of our way of life” and aimed to turn the U.S. into a dictatorship, adding that it would be “a racist one on top of it.” He had previously pushed a conspiracy theory alleging that “OBAMA WAS A CIA ASSET, PUT IN PLACE TO DESTROY THE USA.”

Stockholm Floored After Trump Administration Sends Letter Demanding They End DEI Programs

Swedish authorities in the capital of Stockholm criticized the Trump administration for sending a "bizarre" letter ordering that the city end its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.

The letter marked the latest step in President Donald Trump’s broader push to dismantle federal programs focused on diversity and inclusion—part of what he pledged in his inaugural address would be a campaign to stop attempts to “socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life.”

Roger Stone Slammed After Suggesting Dem Senator Should Be 'Executed' For Criticizing Trump

President Donald Trump's ally is facing heavy criticism after declaring that Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly should be charged with "treason" and "executed" for his dealings with a Chinese company that makes surveillance balloons.

Stone's remarks followed Kelly's comments on Trump's crypto coin scheme outlined in a now-rejected bill that aimed to establish a regulatory framework for stablecoins, a type of digital asset designed to maintain a fixed $1 value, making it better suited for everyday transactions. Democrats said the legislation did not contain adequate standards to safeguard against corruption.
