‘Idiot’ Trump mocked after struggling to pronounce Yosemite: ‘And he questions Biden’s cognitive abilities?’
President Trump was on the receiving end of internet mockery after it became apparent that he doesn’t know how to pronounce the word “Yosemite.”
During a speech on Tuesday at the White House following the signing of the “Great American Outdoors Act,” Trump twice pronounced Yosemite as “yo-Semite.”

Naturally, Trump’s critics on Twitter were a little taken aback that a president of the United States doesn’t know how to pronounce a word that most people take for granted.
I can quite literally picture Kayleigh McEnany being asked about her idiot boss pronouncing Yosemite as “Yo-Semites” and her answer being that the United States has been saying it wrong for 150 years.

Joe Biden can pronounce Yosemite while drinking water with one hand. Pass it on.

I guess Yosemite wasn't on the cognitive test.

Yosemite is one of the most visited national parks in America. It is storied. Iconic. We are taught about it in school. And the idiot in The White House… fail! Typical #DonaldTrump. pic.twitter.com/IwGSaZSLbC

Trump’s talking about the National Parks, and is trying to say “Yosemite”, which is kind of a well known National Park. Time for that cognitive test again, but have him take it on national TV. pic.twitter.com/Ft4CSsBQye

President Person-Woman-Man-Camera-TV can't pronounce Yosemite, but this is the guy who is supposed to lead us through a pandemic?

Trump can't pronounce Yosemite & he questions Biden's cognitive abilities?
— Jim Heath (@JimHeathTV) August 4, 2020
At WH event this morning the sitting US President, Donald J. Trump pronounced "Yosemite" (as in national park)
as "Yo-Semite" (as in Jewish persons)
No woman. No black man. Certainly no woman of color could EVER get away with this incompetent, ignorant, embarrassing idiocy.

The man can’t say Yosemite or plasma right, do you think he has the capability to pass a US citizenship test? @Martina, an immigrant herself, pulls no punches on answering. https://t.co/Zj6Don6esb

We all laugh, but just remember: if Biden had said this, the Trump campaign would have already cut attack ads on it and Fox News would have devoted a day’s coverage to Biden’s gaffe/dementia etc on Yosemite. The Dems could do far more to weaponize Trump’s sheer ignorance tbh. https://t.co/z9a4bPUPSy

Mitch McConnell slammed for his ‘oddly specific’ promise to accept results of Nov. 3 election
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) added his voice to statements issued by other Republican lawmakers assuring they would accept the election results -- which President Donald Trump suggested he would not.
The president refused to commit to the peaceful transition of power if he loses to Joe Biden, and McConnell and some other Republicans offered some sort of assurance they would -- although none mentioned Trump by name and some suggested Biden had made similar threats.
