One of Trump's many problems is a lack of spelling ability, as evidenced by his tweets. We edit them here. Those of us who post on Twitter know that it's easy to make typos when you're hurriedly sending a message of 280 characters.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump's legal team misspelled "United States" on the brief responding to Trump's second impeachment charges.
On Feb. 2, 2021, the legal team representing former U.S. President Donald Trump in his second impeachment trial in the Senate presented their defense argument with a document containing a glaring misspelling.
The attorneys who filed the brief on Trump's behalf, David Schoen and Bruce Castor Jr., had only a short time to put together the document. Their hires were announced Saturday, shortly after everyone else on Trump's team quit.
The typo was at the top of a 14-page brief filed ahead of Trump's impeachment trial in the United States Senate. It argued that impeaching a former president would be unconstitutional, even though the Senate has previously impeached several public officials who left office.
According to an Axios report, he said it was "very embarrassing" that Sidney Powell, the conspiratorial attorney who falsely alleged conspiracy theories to explain Trump's 2020 election loss, spelled "district" as "districct" and "distrcoict" in a lawsuit challenging the election results.

Here are some of the Trump administration’s many other misspellings: 1. An accidental reference to toilet paper. The president tweeted an attack on his former attorney Michael Cohen, who was under investigation for improper dealings while working for Trump.
Not exactly starting off on the right spelling foot, Trump tweeted the day after his inauguration: “I am honered to serve you, the great American People, as your 45th President of the United States.”
A release from Press Secretary Sean Spicer’s office spelled her name “Teresa” — three times.
On an official poster released to mark his inauguration, the message read: “No dream is too big, no challenge is to great,” missing the extra “o” in the second “too.” The poster was later removed from the Library of Congress website.
Confusing “role” for “roll”. In May 2018, Trump stunned the nation when he confirmed he reimbursed his personal lawyer Michael Cohen for the payout to Stormy Daniels — even as the commander in chief continued to deny he had a sexual relationship with the porn star.
After Trump misspelled “counsel,” actor Chris Evans blasted him on Twitter. “It’s ‘counsel’, Biff. The word is ‘counsel.’ ” wrote Evans on Aug. 20. “I was trying to comprehend how in the world a man, even as moronic as you, can misspell a word he probably reads fifty times a day.
Trump added to his lexicographical lowlight reel in May when he tweeted about Sally Yates, the former acting attorney general he fired in January. Yates was gearing up to testify before a Senate subcommittee about her role in the dismissal of former national security adviser Michael Flynn when Trump chimed in.
President Trump's most infamous typo occurred in December, when he described the Chinese seizure of a US Navy drone as an "unpresidented act.". After the spelling miscue was widely mocked online, Trump deleted the tweet and replaced it with a correctly spelled version four hours later.
Back in January, the White House misspelled the name of British Prime Minister Theresa May three times in the official schedule of May's visit to the US.
In late May, the White House released a statement saying one of Trump's goals during his trip to Israel was to "promote the possibility of lasting peach" in the region.
President Donald Trump once said that he has "the best words.". As it turns out, many of those words are misspelled. Since Trump won the presidency in November, he and his team have published a surprising number of official communications that contain typos, spelling errors, and word misusages.
At least 16 women have accused the president of sexual assault. The president recently announced his new national security advisor, John Bolton. When tweeting news of the change, Trump announced a "contact handover," which doesn't ring a bell for us in any language, though Trump may well have meant to write it.
But it really doesn't hurt to take a few seconds to see if you've spelled and punctuated everything correctly. The president of the United States, however, apparently doesn't take those few seconds. Yes, we know we could call out the Donald on many things — but for today, we'll stick to copyediting his tweets.
No, Donald, it's not fake news, and your predecessor actually left the country in pretty good shape . Also, "mainstream" is one word. The stock market needs capital, but the term doesn't need to be capitalized. Also, "15-year" should be hyphenated as an adjective.
In a recent Pennsylvania federal case, Giuliani alleged “widespread, nationwide voter fraud” in his opening remarks. But under questioning from the judge, he retreated. “This is not a fraud case,” Giuliani later admitted. In the same case, Trump lawyer Linda Kearns said explicitly that she is “not proceeding” on allegations of fraud.
In a state case concerning votes in Maricopa County, Ariz., Trump lawyers again dodged and weaved.

Lawyers representing Trump’s campaign sent a letter to Attorney General William Barr on Nov. 5 alleging “criminal voter fraud” in Nevada. But lawyers representing Trump never made that allegation in court filings.
