Former president Donald Trump called Melania ‘Mercedes’ as he praised his wife during a speech in Washington DC. The crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) gave the former First Lady a standing ovation as Mr Trump described how “people love her”. “Oh look at that Mercedes, that’s pretty good” he said as the audience stood and applauded. The GOP presidential hopeful was making the keynote speech on 24 February on the same day as voters head to the polls in the South Carolina primary.
Can you imagine the wall to wall coverage had it been Biden who called his wife by the wrong name? It would go on for weeks.
Because it’s Trump they’ll be nary a peep about this from the “liberal” media.
Edit: Confirmed this morning - not a word about Trump’s demented rambling on the front pages of CNN, NBC, NYT or WA Post. The GQP front-runner’s inability to string a coherent sentence together or remember his wife’s name should be front page news. If Biden tripped over a mic stand it would be.
I’ve seen it everywhere though? Weird take tbh
Weirder you say you’ve seen it everywhere. Mainstream media - NYT, NBC, CNN and WA Post have no mention of it.
