In a viral moment that has X in stitches, a family photo featuring pro-Trump shirts worn by distant family members of Kamala’s running mate Tim Walz, has sparked a wave of confusion and laughter, all thanks to one tiny punctuation mark — the apostrophe. The shirts, emblazoned with ‘Nebraska Walz’s for Trump,’ quickly grabbed attention online, not only for their political message but also for their puzzling use of grammar.
The image, showing eight smiling members of the Walz family standing in front of a ‘Trump 2024: Take America Back’ banner, was posted on social media by prominent conservatives, including Donald Trump Jr and former President Trump himself. But what really set the internet ablaze wasn’t the familial endorsement—it was the oddly placed apostrophe in ‘Walz’s,’ which turned what should have been a simple plural into a possessive head-scratcher.

Critics and grammar enthusiasts wasted no time weighing in. Keith Olbermann led the charge, posting, “So these are the morons who can’t use apostrophes correctly? No wonder they support Trump,” sparking a flurry of similar comments.
Twitter users were quick to join the grammar police, with one tweet reading, “Politics aside, they don’t know how to use apostrophes. Exhibit A, the Walz’s. [Makes me shudder just to type it.]” Another chimed in: “How fitting that they don’t understand correct apostrophe usage. No wonder they’re voting for Trump.”

Some couldn’t resist poking fun at the broader implications, with one user sarcastically writing, “Too bad they are so uneducated they don’t know the proper use of an apostrophe. Guess spelling isn’t a priority in MAGA land.” Others kept it simple: “Morons don’t even know how to use an apostrophe. How embarrassing.”

Even grammar buffs jumped into the conversation, explaining the rules for pluralizing names ending in “z” or “s.” “They obviously don’t know you don’t make a plural by using an apostrophe and an ‘s.’” One user quipped, “They’re teachers. And they don’t know the proper use of apostrophes. NEVER use an apostrophe to form a plural.”

The misplaced apostrophe quickly became a viral sensation, transforming a political moment into a grammatical cautionary tale. As one Twitter user put it: “I’m crying. You know they’re stupid from the way they misused the apostrophe.”

Whether you’re Team Trump or not, one thing is clear: the internet loves a good apostrophe scandal.

The Colorado Buffaloes are gearing up for their long-standing rivalry against Nebraska, drawing insights from an unexpected source. At least that’s the way it was reported. A few outlets like the Associated Press, Omaha World-Herald and others believed Colorado Governor Jared Polis made a trip to Boulder to encourage the Buffs players before heading off to Lincoln. That wasn’t true and it turns out to be a case of mistaken identity.

When Deion Sanders was talking about “The Governor,” he was really making reference to CU reserve long snapper Camden Dempsey, who has earned the nickname for his political nature. Colorado is now three days away from the “Red Letter” rivalry and got a stump speech from their own un-elected official about the importance of coming home with a victory.   

Dempsey shared reasons why this rivalry should matter deeply to the Buffaloes, which provided added motivation ahead of their matchup with the Huskers. They even joked that no one on the team would be caught wearing red, Nebraska’s primary color.

Sanders, an advocate for the passion and tradition of college football, highlighted the significance of the rivalry, which persists despite the teams no longer being in the same conference. As part of his weekly news conference, Sanders shared that their recent game against North Dakota State drew a peak audience of 5.6 million viewers, showcasing the growing interest in the Buffaloes under his leadership. He praised standout performances, particularly that of Jimmy Horn Jr., who nearly reached 200 receiving yards, and Travis Hunter, whom Sanders described as “the definition of ‘him’” for his impressive 131 total snaps as a receiver and cornerback.

Deion Sanders and Colorado must stay ahead of the curve and it starts with Nebraska

Looking ahead to Nebraska, Sanders expressed respect for Nebraska’s head coach, Matt Rhule, and acknowledged the toughness of the Cornhuskers. He expects a physically demanding game, highlighting Nebraska’s freshman quarterback, Dylan Raiola, who impressed in his debut with 238 yards and two touchdowns against UTEP. 

Sanders noted Raiola’s strong performance, stating that while he targets weaknesses in opposing teams, Raiola’s poise and playmaking abilities are not among them. As Sanders and his team prepare for the clash, they remain focused on executing their own game plan, aiming to build on their promising start to the season.

Colorado hits the road east to face Nebraska on Saturday night (7:30 p.m. ET/TV: NBC).
