“Make Americans Geographers Again.”
By Lee Moran

President Donald Trump was schooled on Twitter after making a geography-themed gaffe at a political rally.

Trump appeared not to know the difference among the United Kingdom, Great Britain and England during a rally in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, on Thursday night:

. . .

“I have great respect for the U.K., United Kingdom, great respect,” said Trump. “People call it Britain. They call it Great Britain. They used to call it England, different parts.”

Folks online were keen to point out that Great Britain consists of England, Scotland and Wales — and the United Kingdom is made up of those three countries, plus Northern Ireland. They also noted how the country of England is most definitely still called England, despite Trump’s claim.

9. OH NO, Yes he is "stupid" but...........

The SAA which I represent, does not like being associated with Mr. Trump
The SAA is the "Stupid Society of America" and we represent the many of our citizens who are less than intelligent...

None of us, I repeat, none of us in the SAA, NONE, want to be associated with the asshole Mr. Trump

Thank You.... ....oh, I forgot, as far as assholes are concerned, take it up with the ASA..that is the Assholes Society of America...........

7. These two cracked me up

Why do so many of Trumps speeches sound like a 12-year-old faking their way through an oral book report?

"The Lord of the Flies is a great book. Just great. There were a ton of flies...whole bunch of flies. This one character, he was the lord of them. Lord of the flies."

"Also, Lucky Charms come from Ireland. Which some say is is part of Great Britain, but really is imaginary. Nobody knows this. Only me."

[llmart]

13. However...

I'd wager a bet that not one of his stupid-as-him followers at the rally would even know this.

He has verbal diarrhea.

14. Great Britain is an island, not a country.

A lot of people don't know that.

[Doitnow]

15. Stupid people don't know they're stupid.

16. Australia used to be called Austria.

And it used to be a country but now it's a continent.

17. He's such a fucking embarassment every time he opens his ugly orange assmouth.

He's truly the most ignorant person to ever represent our country, and the only one in the top office who is an agent of a hostile foreign power bent on destroying us and advancing the interests of a worldwide criminal front.
