Trump confuses "county" for "country"

He can't be this stupid, can he?

When Donald Trump misquoted CNN in a tweet, Jake Tapper took him to task live on air.

After the Republican presidential candidate incorrectly tweeted that Utah officials were reporting voting machine problems across the "entire country," Tapper issued a fact-check.

"In point of fact, CNN is not reporting that," Tapper said. "The problem is 'problems across the county.' A county, not the country, as Mr Trump tweeted. It's the difference of an 'r', but kind of an important one."
