Who’s Melanie!? Trump misspells wife’s name in ‘welcome home’ tweet
US President Donald Trump has triggered an avalanche of mockery on social media after he welcomed his wife Melania Trump back home from the hospital, misspelling the First Lady's name and sending Twitter into overload.
“Great to have our incredible First Lady back home in the White House. Melanie is feeling and doing really well. Thank you for all of your prayers and best wishes!” Trump tweeted on Saturday to the great pleasure of his followers.
Although the US leader rushed to correct his error and delete the tweet – the original mishap immediately went viral with #melanie hashtag.
I don’t know what’s worse:
Trump sending a tweet with Melania’s name misspelled, or that he types her name so rarely that his phone hasn’t stopped autocorrecting it to #Melanie.
Either way, brutal.https://t.co/NoVIScgyQ9

You know.... I've worried about one day seeing my name trending on Twitter. I'm glad that today when it finally happened, it's because I wasn't the one who did something stupid. #Melaniepic.twitter.com/gQTaQJOMzx
