HILARIOUS: Donald Trump sits next to Apple CEO Tim Cook, calls him "Tim Apple"

Practically every week, there's a minor hullabaloo over President Trump's shaky grasp of the English language, from his head-scratching grammatical tics to his painfully obvious misspellings. However, this time the error is not related to grammar but the name of Apple CEO Tim Cook.

“We appreciate it very much, Tim Apple,” Trump said, sitting right next to Cook who had a nametag in front of him that said “Tim Cook.” US President Donald Trump triggered a laughter riot on the Internet after his goof up.

The incident took place at the White House on Wednesday during a meeting of the American Workforce Policy Advisory Board. The video of Trump’s gaffe soon went viral and has garnered millions of views.

“Tim, you’ve got to start doing it over here,’ and you really have. You really put a big investment in our country. We appreciate it very much, Tim Apple,” Donald Trump is heard saying in the video with Tim sitting beside him.
