Donald Trump Called Out After Awkwardly Misspelling His Own Name In Post About Iran Attack

As Donald Trump praised the B-2 pilots who flew the strikes on Iran, he misspelled his own name in a post he later deleted and reposted.

President Donald Trump was ripped by critics after he awkwardly misspelled his own name while praising the B-2 pilots who flew the strikes on Iran—only to later delete the post and repost it as if nothing happened.

On Saturday, Trump authorized a series of intense U.S. air and submarine strikes targeting three Iranian nuclear facilities, amid ongoing uncertainty about the status of Tehran’s nuclear program.


Senior U.S. officials cautioned that it was still unclear whether Iran retained the capability to build a nuclear weapon, and the whereabouts of its enriched uranium stockpile remained unknown. Nevertheless, Trump insisted that Iran’s nuclear infrastructure had been “obliterated.”

Then on Sunday, Trump took to Truth Social to celebrate the return of the B-2 pilots who ran the mission but, there was an awkward typo in the post that led him to delete and repost it.

You'd think he'd know how to spell his name considering how obsessed he is with himself—yet Trump's first version of the post read:

“The GREAT B-2 pilots have just landed, safely, in Missouri. Thank you for a job well done!!! DONAKD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!”

You can see what he wrote below:

"DONAKD"?

Perhaps none of this is a surprise from the same man who once referred to supply chains as "supply change," had to have an entire interview with Dr. Phil awkwardly cut to hide his repeated gaffes, weirdly named his billionaire ally Elon Musk "Leon" at a rally, and in February referred to the social media platform TikTok as "Tic Tac" twice in quick succession, confusing it with the popular breath mint brand.

Trump was widely called out for the gaffe, particularly considering this is the same guy with the nuclear codes and the ability to wage war.

Iranian officials condemned the U.S. strikes, with Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warning during a news conference in Istanbul that Iran “reserves all options to defend its security interests and people.”

Araghchi declined to elaborate, including on whether Iran would target American military assets in the region, where over 40,000 U.S. personnel and civilians are stationed across bases and naval vessels.

Meanwhile, U.S. military and intelligence officials reported signs that Iran-backed militias were preparing to strike American bases in Iraq—and potentially Syria—in response. Iraqi leaders were actively working to prevent such attacks.

MAGA Senator Slammed After Scolding Americans For Whining About High Gas Prices Amid Iran War—And Wow

Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall chastised Americans for complaining about high gas prices and insisted they should consider that their "national security is even more important" than whatever blows are being dealt to their wallets at the gas pump.

Consumer prices are up 3.3% compared to a year ago, largely fueled by a surge in energy costs. The energy index jumped 10.9% in a single month as oil and gas prices climbed sharply. Amid the Iran war and the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, oil has risen back to around $100 a barrel, pushing gasoline prices up by a record 25%.

X user @oatmilkanie shouted out an unidentified child who clearly got the memo when they boarded a plane and discovered that the child had written a note for the next person to sit in their seat, directly on the paper nausea bag that's snuggled in the seat pocket in front of the passenger's knees.
