7. One mistake that he can't say

Sat Jun 6, 2026, 08:23 AM

Yesterday

"What about Donald Trump? A jury of his peers convicted him of sexual assault, not to mention his paying off a pornstar while his wife was pregnant with their child?" " Did you constantly hound him about these facts when he was running for President in 2016 or 2024?"

Take 2016 out of there, because he wasn't convicted of sexual assault until well after 2016, nor did paying the pornstar come out after the election.
