Trump's Weekend Gaffes: 'Mercedes' For Melania,
Accidentally Endorses Biden, And More
Former President Trump appeared to refer to his
wife Melania Trump as “Mercedes” to some
watching his speech at the Conservative Political
Action Conference on Saturday—though the
president’s campaign and surrogates strongly
pushed back on that claim—on top of two other
recent blunders, as cognitive sharpness becomes
a key campaign issue.
The remarks at CPAC come only one week after
Trump told voters at a Michigan rally to
remember to vote on “very important date” of
November 27—even though the state’s primary
election is on February 27.
