President Donald Trump isn’t the only member of the Trump family to make spelling mistakes on Twitter.
On Tuesday morning, the phrase “United Kingston” quickly began trending on social media after Ivanka Trump congratulated former London mayor Boris Johnson, who was elected Conservative party Leader in Great Britain this week, for becoming the United Kingdom’s next prime minister.
