President Donald Trump mistakenly signed a Truth Social post “Donakd J. Trump, President of the United States” in which he was thanking pilots participating in an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
The typo—replacing the “L” with a “K”—was caught immediately, deleted, and changed, although screenshots already went viral on the internet.
This common trend of typos reflects previous blunders such as “covfefe” in 2017 and misspelling his wife as “Melanie” rather than Melania.
Watchers opined that such errors in high-stakes announcements—such as military strikes—are indications of a lack of attention to detail in sensitive messages.

Someone else said: “Dumb a** can’t even spell his own name but has access to the nuclear codes.”
