The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives does not have to deliver the State of the Union address, which President Donald Trump will give Tuesday night, but they are in charge of printing the tickets for those attending.
Turns out this year, that was a lot to ask as the printed tickets erroneously spelled the word 'Union' as 'Uniom'—an error which has reportedly delayed distribution of tickets while also spawning immediate gaffaws and ridicule online:

Funny/not funny...
Amazing that the total incompetence of the #45 administration extends from most momentous missteps to the tiniest of errors. #SOTU / #SOTUniom https://t.co/CsY7VH6jVk— Bob Bancroft (@MrBobBancroft) January 29, 2018
