The Stable genius in the White House sent a very simple tweet for a change -- one that didn’t attack, vilify or smear a political rival or dissenting view.
HAPPY PRESIDENT’S DAY!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 17, 2020
Shocking, right?
Even in its simplicity Trump can’t spell the simplest of holidays. One that praises past US presidents.
Instead, he tweeted out a tweet to congratulate and worship himself, by simply writing all in caps HAPPY PRESIDENT'S DAY.
Note the position of the apostrophe, because of course he thinks it's a day of worship of him.
In their typical satirical fashion, the Merriam-Webster dictionary tweeted the true spelling and then offered the correction without mentioning Donald Trump.
Happy Presidents' Day, friends. https://t.co/LcNrrqsfRM

(That's where the apostrophe goes.)

It’s an embarrassing faux pas as anything that should come from a sitting US president. It’s like misspelling his own name on a piece of legislation.
Have a nice holiday, all!
