Trump misspells 'honour' in Twitter mishap

He may have become the leader of the free world but moving to the White House does not seem to have helped Donald Trump's spelling. Shortly after his inauguration, the US President tweeted saying he was "honered" to have been sworn in as the 45th US leader. While the British and US spellings of the word "honoured" are different, neither are spelt in the way used by Trump. The former property tycoon wrote: "I am honered to serve you, the great American People, as your 45th President of the United States!" The tweet was quickly deleted and re-posted with the correct spelling, but not before a number of people had replied querying the President's spelling.
