why include like?? And if you do - why a comma?? I would do that for effect, but not unless I were trying to make a subtle point.

Is he dictating his tweets?? Are they transcribed? Very strange.

not an inadvertent error.

Newspapers and journalists will print retractions because of an inadvertent error. That adds to their credibility, not detracts from it. No one expects anyone to be perfect, but to try their best and admit any mistakes they may have made, and correct them.

That's adult behavior. Something the current resident of the White House fails to understand.
