Trump’s latest gaffe is ripe for puns.
During a campaign event in Ohio on Thursday, the president mispronounced Thailand as “Thigh-land.”
“Shifting production to Thigh-land,” Trump said during the speech, before correcting himself. “Thailand and Vietnam, two places that… I like their leaders very much.”
It was only a matter of time before Twitter users began churning anatomical puns.

Thighland is just off the coast of Crotchatia.

Thighland’s motto:
“Thick thighs save lives”

It’s not the first time Trump has mispronounced a location. Earlier this week, the president referred to Yosemite National Park, pronounced “Yoh-sem-it-ees,” as “Yo-semites.” He stumbled over the word again and added another syllable, pronouncing it as “Yo-sem-in-ites.”
Twitter users joked about the two gaffes.
The Prince of Whales and I stopped by Nambia after we left Thighland on our way to Yo-Semite National Park.
We caught a connecting flight out of the Revolutionary War Airport.
