U.S. President Donald Trump caused a splash on Twitter after he tweeted to say he had met the "Prince of Whales" instead of the Prince of Wales. According to Hignett, Trump was commenting on his recent UK state visit, where he met with Prince Charles, Trump wrote: "I meet and talk to 'foreign governments' every day. I just met with the Queen of England (U.K.), the Prince of Whales, the P.M. of the United Kingdom...We talked about 'Everything!'" Hignett states that Trump was quick to delete and repost the tweet with the correct title but he was not quick enough to avoid the jokes and memes that followed.
Good Karma for those who comment...
