As a preamble, I don't actually think this is a big deal or anything, just highly amusing. Although it does make me think about just how far some people will go to embarrass themselves for the sake of political loyalties.
The backstory: Trump mispronounced "Thailand" during a speech. What else is new? But then, Dinesh D'Souza jumped in and insisted that, actually, Trump's pronunciation was correct and that most Americans have been saying it the wrong way. The sheer number of tweets on this was simply breathtaking...

The funniest part? If you watch the original clip, you can see that Trump corrected himself and pronounces it the correct way, the second time around. Even he knows the correct pronunciation apparently, unlike D'Souza.
