Ivanka Trump Trolled By Internet Over Grammar Fail In Tweet
First daughter Ivanka Trump posted what she thought was an innocuous tweet Tuesday about her newborn nephew only to be trolled by a multitude of Twitter users over her incorrect grammar. Ivanka apparently meant to celebrate the birth of the son of her brother Eric Trump and his wife, Lara Trump, only to draw attention to the picture in an entirely unintended way.
“Cuddling my little nephew Luke,” she wrote alongside a photo of herself and the baby. “The best part of an otherwise incredible day!”

Ivanka seemingly meant to write an “overall incredible day” instead of an “otherwise incredible day.” In true Twitter fashion, users seized upon the incorrect use of the word “otherwise” and skewered Ivanka for inadvertently implying she did not enjoy holding her newborn nephew.
“What a strange way to find out Ivanka Trump doesn’t know what ‘otherwise’ means,” film writer Norm Wilner tweeted.
“Mood: Ivanka Trump using the word ‘otherwise’ incorrectly, basically saying cuddling her nephew is un-incredible,” a user tweeted.
I've been scrolling to see if anyone caught the "otherwise." What?! So other than holding this kid, your day was great?

Words mean things. This makes no sense, dude.

Inevitably, somebody came through with a “Princess Bride” Inigo Montoya GIF.

Some celebrities got in on the action as well. Twitter aficionado Chrissy Teigen unsurprisingly had some words for Ivanka.
“’Otherwise’ implies you did not like hangin with this baby,” Teigen posted.

It’s not the first time the eldest Trump daughter has been called out for her words on Twitter. Most recently, she was trolled for an old tweet about the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program after her President Donald Trump announced he’d be ending the program.
