We all make mistakes in political journalism (for instance I once got Congressman Denny Heck mixed up with Congressman Joe Heck), but sometimes the resulting corrections are more unintentionally hilarious than others. The New York Times published a rather useful article today documenting the number of days in which Donald Trump has spent at each of his personal properties since being sworn in. But one little thing went wrong…

We’ll let the Times explain the matter in its own words, in the correction it has since appended to the bottom of its article:

Cue your own jokes. In the mean time, the New York Times article in question is worth reading, and serves as a handy guide for winning any arguments with Trump supporters about just how much time Trump has spent on vacation thus far – and how much golf he’s played. But the article will probably always be best remembered for the correction. You can read it here.

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever. I'm asking you to contribute what you can to our GoFundMe Page or our PayPal Page, both of which accept debit and credit cards. Thank you.
