Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, drew a wave of online ridicule after complaining that Democrats want to make Ohio a state.
Trump Jr. made the remark Monday while actually in the Buckeye State to campaign for Republican candidates.
“They want to, what is it? Save democracy by destroying democracy,” Trump Jr. said of Democrats. “They wanna pack the Supreme Court. They wanna make Ohio a state, make D.C. a state, have permanent one-party rule.”
I’m guessing DC was the intended remark, that he said Ohio and then DC was the intended correction.
He was probably reminding himself in his head that he was in Ohio as he spoke and when it came to say a state like name, his internal reminder just leaked out.
Still funny, but I can see how it could have happened.
