Donald Trump has taken his obsession with crafting falsehoods about Democratic nominee Kamala Harris to the next level, penning his own fan fiction on Tuesday about the vice president.

            Exactly what I was thinking. It’s a common pattern of his; he can’t ever be wrong, so when he fucks up he has to act like it was intentional.

            This one is going to be extra funny though because his cult will immediately try to imitate it, and we’ll get to see them all stumbling over trying to pronounce “Kamabla”

              You just made me realize, maybe that’s the point.

              He generally refuses to say her name correctly, with the hard first ‘a’ instead of the flatter one. However when you use “blah”, it’s generally a flat ‘a’, and you’d almost never use that hard ‘a’ for “blah” unless you were being sarcastic. Anyways, when using “blah” like you should say her first ‘a’, he now shows he could say it right, he just refuses to.

                  Well, yes. But it linguistically triggers english readers into saying her name incorrectly. Even trying to say her name right after using “Kamablah” is difficult to a native speaker.

          He’s deleted typos in the past. He had one tweet referring to “swampman bidan” that he deleted soon after and put the exact same tweet up with Biden’s name spelled correctly. But then again he left covfefe up, so who knows why his stable genius abrain makes the decisions it does.
