Yahoo Finance accidentally tweeted out the wrong headline and now social media has started it’s latest trending topic.
The headline read, “Trump Wants A Much N*gger Navy: Here’s How Much It’ll Cost.”
Of course we know it was an innocent typo but dang wheres auto correct when you need it! Anyways, it didn’t stop Black Twitter from coining the #N*ggerNavy hashtag :
