Donald Trump has blamed his phone and even the US military after admitting he referred to his wife, Melania, by the wrong name during a White House speech in Washington this week, a slip that has reignited online speculation about the 79-year-old president's mental fitness.
Trump acknowledged that he had at times referred to the first lady as 'Melody' in posts on his social media platform Truth Social, insisting the mix‑up stemmed from autocorrect rather than forgetfulness. Speaking from the White House podium, he told supporters that his device repeatedly changed 'Melania' to 'Melody' and that the error slipped through because he posted so quickly.
