Donald Trump needs a lesson in Jeff Sessions.
The president misspelled his attorney general's name as "Jeff Session" in a Wednesday morning tweet attempting to place blame on former President Barack Obama for Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election. In response, Twitter held a Jeff session to teach the president the importance of spell checking his tweets.

View Story"Question: If all of the Russian meddling took place during the Obama Administration, right up to January 20th, why aren't they the subject of the investigation? Why didn't Obama do something about the meddling? Why aren't Dem crimes under investigation? Ask Jeff Session," Trump tweeted.
It's the latest in a steady string of typos that have fascinated the public since Trump took over the highest office in the land. After the jokes started coming, Trump did delete the original tweet to correct the misspelling.

Twitter cracked up last August when it took Trump three times to spell "heal" correctly and again when he went to Twitter to drag the media's negative "convfefe," otherwise known as coverage.

AP style note: When referring to plural of Attorney General Jeff Session, the correct form is “Attorneys General Jeff Sessions”

Who should Jeff Session investigate after Obama?

You may notice a points difference.

During the break our judges went back and reviewed the response from Donald.
We were looking for Jeff Sessions.

a "Jeff Session" is that garbage throwaway track your band lays down before recording the actual album
@katystoll
I wonder what Sarah Huckabee Sander is going to say about Donald Trumps saying Jeff Session.

Some poor guy named Jeff Session, who probably owns a hardware store in Oregon, is about to be flooded with calls from the nation's assignment editors.

Which is worse: directing your AG to investigate your political enemies or misspelling his name? Hello America, it's Wednesday! https://t.co/NQH6mmerbq

Did Jeff Sessions really think that by changing his name to Jeff Session, it would confuse Robert Mueller?

I'm putting my money on Kaepernick in a spelling bee vs Trump.
@PaulLantos
You know it's Trump tweeting when there's a 3rd Grade spelling error!
@TravisAllen02
Can't even spell his own Attorney General's name correctly!
SAD!!!!#WhoIsJeffSession pic.twitter.com/dNeX6jdIPF
Lol Trump really deleted and fixed the spelling of Jeff Sessions name rofl
@TheScudStud
#Trump has only been dealing with Jeff Sessions for a little over a year. You can't expect him to remember the spelling of his name.
@timmthelen
Trump - You're wasting your time with this absurd argument. Also, you might want to check the correct spelling of your AG - shows a real lack of attention in someone who is supposed to be awake and aware, but is clearly asleep at the wheel!
