President Donald Trump mocked someone about a typo on Twitter and people immediately flooded him with examples of his own many, many spelling mistakes in response.
Trump ― who has previously misspelled both his and his own wife’s names on the social media platform ― on Thursday poked fun at The Washington Post’s conservative columnist Jennifer Rubin for mistakenly writing “Bloombefg” in a tweet about 2020 presidential hopeful Michael Bloomberg:
.@JRubinBlogger (Jennifer Rubin), the wacko “conservative” of the @washingtonpost, must learn how to spell the name Bloomberg before it is too late & he is gone! https://t.co/a8IBH60sx0
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 20, 2020
The hypocrisy proved too much for many tweeters.
Hamberders, anyone?

Trump criticized Biden for nepotism, Bloomberg for racism, Hillary Clinton for misogyny - so it was inevitable that sooner or later he would criticize someone for misspelling https://t.co/iYFdN8waS1

Did Donald Trump really just try to insult someone about a typo? This man is the most blatant hypocrite I have ever seen and he was elected president? Nothing but a fear mongering divider in chief with a lust of power for legal protection. We must vote this fool out

To be fair, Bloombefg was not the candidate who just had the worst debate performance in modern history, Bloomberg was.

Don't think you have the right to be calling anybody out on their spelling/grammar 🙄
