Donald Trump Mixes Up Names and Struggles to Pronounce Teletron During Recent Nebraska Rally Speech

During a campaign rally in Grand Island, Nebraska, on Monday, Oct. 5, President Donald Trump mixed up the names of Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and later stumbled over “Teletron” while discussing large video screens outside the Pinnacle Bank Expo Center at Fonner Park. Trump was campaigning for Pillen and Republican Sen. Pete Ricketts ahead of the Nov. 3 midterms. He attacked Lynne Walz, the Democratic gubernatorial candidate challenging Pillen, making remarks about her relationship to Tim Walz and repeatedly referring to the family with confusion. The speech also included comments on the economy, immigration, and the conflict with Iran, including mentions of missile interceptions and the Strait of Hormuz, before the brief “Teletron” exchange outside.
