LOL. Red "Socks" Won the World Cup and Lincoln Lost the War. Another Day In Trumplandia.

I know there are bigger issues to focus on than clerical errors by WH staff, but a trifecta today:

1. “The Red Socks”
2. Massachusetts “Instutution” of Technology
3. The “World Cup Series Champions”pic.twitter.com/At1vwd1CXE

So the Red Sox's Tom Werner spoke to reporters briefly and said this happened:

Trump "is a pretty good raconteur of history and he did say that, uh—he was talking about Abraham Lincoln losing the war and said ‘Well, I know you guys have lost a game or two, but this was a war.’”

Red Socks was just a typo. Trump was trying to invite the White Hoods.

Credit where credit is due. It’s very hard to be this bad at everything.

I thought Lincoln surrendered at Bowling Green? 🤔

Quick, somebody tell him about the Red Socks defeating Lincoln on Free Kicks at the Civil War Battle of Bunker Hill.

We could bring today full circle.
