    Misspelling is not uncommon for politicians, lol. From Dan Quayle spelling “potato” wrong to Obama not being able to spell “respect”

    ;)

    It's not? You've provided two examples over the last 30 years. The current president misspells words on a daily basis. Sometimes multiple times per day and multiple misspellings in the same tweet. 

    This your argument?
    Just another lame attempt at normalizing stupidity in the highest office in the land.

    Reading comprehension isn’t your strong point, is it?  That’s okay, it’s not for everyone.  I am not sure how you missed the “from” and “to” words...I’m not sure anyone holds Trump in high regards in the realm of English literature.  I definitely do not think Trump comes anywhere close to a great mind...but that being said, some of the greatest minds have been people that cannot spell worth a shit:

    "You live along the border. Should we build it on your land?"

    "Of course not! Build it on some other land that no one owns!"

    "All of the land is owned by someone. Should the government expropriate your friends' or neighbours' land, then?"

    "Ummmm....."
    It isn't always that simple, and in this case is far from that.
    The wall isn't going to be along the border the whole way, and in many cases is miles from the boarder.
    According to this article they are rumors they are considering building the wall on the north side of town, leaving the whole town on the Mexican side.
    I would complain too.

    And there is plenty of land that is not owned by individuals, there is a whole lot that is BLM land

    You're missing the point. It's not necessarily that he cannot spell....it's that he couldn't care less to even proofread the information he decides to send out to the rest of the world on a daily basis. He is an embarrassment either way.

    Great point...but how does that conflict with the study that I referenced?  Are you trying to say that Trump made you point out grammatical errors?  Just sounds like defending and whining to me.  Trump is an idiot, that is not new news...

    Well what was the point of posting an article about great minds being bad spellers if you admit Trump is an idiot anyway?

    All of this is moot except for the fact that you and Mace missed the irony of my post. 

    Here's an article about it:

    When someone is trying to come across as a real smarty pants, their point is stupid, and their post resembles something that might have been comprised by a four year old... it’s legit to point out their poor spelling and grammar when dismissing their spew..

    Conplaining about people pointing out your weak grammar when you’re trying to come across as a real smarty pants is comical.

    ”Come on. Take me seriously. Who cares if I spelled border wrong and have not used a period or comma in my passage? I’m legit!”
    So does that mean that you are not legit for spelling “complaining” wrong, or am I an asshole for pointing it out? Lol. “Smarty-pants”... ;)

    Thanks. I guess my point is useless since I misspelled 1 woard.
                                                                                                ^ that was a joke.
    Don’t worry, it had been scientifically proven that people that always point out grammatical or spelling errors are pretty much assholes, lol
    I’m not sure how you can scientifically prove this.

    But I agree that stupid people spouting stupid things with words like ‘cat’ spelled wrong in their ramblings should be fully respected... and the error of their ways should just be left alone with opinion and delivery left untouched.
    Lol, while I tend to agree, anyone with half a brain usually understands what the context of the statement is and understands that even the greatest writers hire editors to find typos and grammatical errors.  It is a double edged sword.  Here is an article with links to the studies I referenced, lol:https://www.psychreg.org/grammar-nazis-losers/


    And in the case of a Trump supporter misspelling the word the same incorrect way the president does on a daily basis, we're not allowed to point out that delicious irony, right?
    You are allowed to do what you please, just pointing out what studies have said on the subject of people that continuously point out grammar errors...Again, don’t shoot the messenger.
    how can you possibly have a scientific study that measures the assholiness of a person?
    It is more related to personality traits...read the article.
    If you are not going to read it and the linked studies, then I am not going to debate it.
    But you are right, “asshole” is open to interpretation, maybe I should have said that they “typically hold several negative personality traits”.
    I know someone is displaying negative personality traits here, and it ain't the one who humourously pointed out an ironic spelling error.
    And give me a grammar nazi over an idiot who can't be bothered to spell things properly any day please.

    So there is no difference between pointing out a spelling error and simply pointing out sweet, delicious irony? I say covfefe to that. 
    Well, for the record, you didn’t point out the irony of it until afterwards...
    I would be more concerned if you made a habit out of it.

    Sir, if the irony is lost on folks, that's entirely on them. Should be obvious. 
    Well, many folks do not have a twitter account and do not spend their day underlining Trumps grammatical errors (he probably spells more things wrong than right if I were to guess).  So not “that” obvious.
    It came out more as a pathetic attack against Mace’s intelligence, if you are not aware of Trump’s constant misspellings of certain words.
    Oh come on! He talks and tweets about the "border" and spells it wrong on every day. You don't have to have twitter to know this. Fox News splatters his tweets across their programming all day long. 

    Surprisingly (or not)  you and Mace are the only one's here who did not pick up on the irony....and you have killed this poor horse and beaten it to smithereens. I can't believe we're still talking about this. This poor animal.
    I had no idea he spelled it that way. So I found no irony in it.
    But to be honest, when a comment is just to point out one mistake and not responding to any of the context, it comes across to me as if you are trying to put that person down, minimize what they say over 1 typo and paint them as ignorant. And in the previous comment I wrote "border," so I have no idea what other purpose there would be to point out that I had a typo in the follow-up. I'm a terrible typer, and have a habit of combining letters when typing that I would never do when writing by hand. So I threw in an extra letter when rushing my response, I guess that makes my whole argument invalid.  
    Its probably pretty clear that I rarely, if ever, proof read any of these and just write something and move on. I have typos all the time, I write "don;t" more often than I write "don't". Who cares about 1 typo in a reply?

    "BORDER"


    Thanks. I guess my point is useless since I misspelled 1 woard.
                                                                                                ^ that was a joke.
    Don’t worry, it had been scientifically proven that people that always point out grammatical or spelling errors are pretty much assholes, lol
    I’m not sure how you can scientifically prove this.

    But I agree that stupid people spouting stupid things with words like ‘cat’ spelled wrong in their ramblings should be fully respected... and the error of their ways should just be left alone with opinion and delivery left untouched.
    Lol, while I tend to agree, anyone with half a brain usually understands what the context of the statement is and understands that even the greatest writers hire editors to find typos and grammatical errors.  It is a double edged sword.  Here is an article with links to the studies I referenced, lol:https://www.psychreg.org/grammar-nazis-losers/

    how can you possibly have a scientific study that measures the assholiness of a person?
    It is more related to personality traits...read the article.
    If you are not going to read it and the linked studies, then I am not going to debate it.
    But you are right, “asshole” is open to interpretation, maybe I should have said that they “typically hold several negative personality traits”.
    I know someone is displaying negative personality traits here, and it ain't the one who humourously pointed out an ironic spelling error.
    And give me a grammar nazi over an idiot who can't be bothered to spell things properly any day please.
    Don’t be so hard on yourself ;)

    Can you explain your spelling mistake in just a little more detail please? 
    Thank you.

    Trump supporters crowdfund millions of dollars for border wall
    https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/trump-supporters-crowdfund-millions-of-dollars-for-border-wall-1.4226088


    Rival crowdfunding campaign looks to raise money for ladders to circumvent border wall
    https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/rival-crowdfunding-campaign-looks-to-raise-money-for-ladders-to-circumvent-border-wall-1.4228924?fbclid=IwAR2eBLEY5dp2n9H7JUIX_9qc3bN3NFcWt8KgcyO5yOKkiWzEufNvPTXZetE

    They have only raised 10 million for the wall, so they are a few bucks short of Trump's goal...lol
