Wordplay: Merriam-Webster dictionary 'throwing shade' at Trump's #unpresidented spelling

Even the dictionary is throwing shade at Trump this morning. https://t.co/kh4rUOSeBt

Earlier in the day, President-Elect Trump had a bit of a spelling error in a tweet about China:

#Unpresidented would score 17 points in Scrabble if it were an actual word. pic.twitter.com/2vjlu5BRCL

Next thing we knew, #unpresidented was trending on Twitter.

Merriam-Webster’s dictionary got its troll game on:

Good morning! The #WordOfTheDay is…not 'unpresidented'. We don't enter that word. That's a new one. https://t.co/BJ45AtMNu4

Will Trump respond?

Failing Merriam-Webster is a very bad dictionary. Unfair languaging. Trying to stay relevant by attacking me. Scared of Oxford. Sad! https://t.co/h4GYevyJ0X

Hey, it can happen to any president:

Where were you when Obama proclaimed we had 57 states?
