Trump misspells Melania’s name in initial tweet welcoming her back to White House
President Trump misspelled first lady Melania Trump’s name in a tweet welcoming her back to the White House on Saturday.

“Great to have our incredible First Lady back home in the White House. Melanie is feeling and doing really well,” Trump tweeted.
Trump quickly deleted the tweet and sent another one with the correct spelling of the first lady’s name.
Great to have our incredible First Lady back home in the White House. Melania is feeling and doing really well. Thank you for all of your prayers and best wishes!

Melania Trump had spent several days at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., recovering from a kidney procedure before she returned to the White House on Saturday.
Twitter users were quick to point out the error.

Even in White House known for typos, spelling his own wife’s name wrong still feels… not ideal. https://t.co/a1NGLKSiAs
