Because this administration can’t even go a full 12 hours without some sort of embarrassment, on Wednesday morning President Trump once again lashed out at Special Counsel Robert Mueller over his Russia investigation. This time, parroting Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz, who penned an op-ed for The Hill on why he thinks Mueller should not have been appointed in the first place. (Dershowitz has also been making the rounds on Fox News, lest anyone jump to the conclusion that the president was actually forced to read anything.)
Unfortunately, Trump was in such a state of excitement to tweet out the so-called affirmation that he was even sloppier than usual with this first, typo-ridden tweet. “Special Council is told to find crimes wether crimes exist or not [sic],” the president tweeted, and it only went downhill from there.

Trump (or someone helping him) quickly deleted the tweet and gave it another shot, but still ended up spelling “counsel” wrong three times. Not to mention, at that point he had also already tweeted a follow up tweet which just makes for a flat-out confusing timeline, which currently appears in the following order:
…there was no probable cause for believing that there was any crime, collusion or otherwise, or obstruction of justice!” So stated by Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz.

“Special Council is told to find crimes, whether a crime exists or not. I was opposed to the selection of Mueller to be Special Council. I am still opposed to it. I think President Trump was right when he said there never should have been a Special Council appointed because…..

Oh well, you tried, anyway. As usual, Twitter was quick to revel in Trump’s “just amazingly dumb” handiwork.

Council. Wether. I’d joke that he’s letting Barron write his tweets for him but 12-year-olds can spell better than this. Plus he’d have to actually spend time with his son. pic.twitter.com/bojRVbmkmL

I don’t even think spelling errors are a big deal. But you are the president. The president’s children. No proofreading? My phone won’t even LET me spell most words that way. It fascinates me. It’s 6am.

Trump deleted last tweet with five typos but still spelled “special counsel” incorrectly three times in this new tweet – all in effort to renew attacks on Mueller’s investigation https://t.co/by45nSjLk7

Trump is clearly escalating his attacks on the special counsel, though he has not yet learned how to spell special counsel. pic.twitter.com/GaQ47ltfFN
