Nancy Pelosi refers to Africa as a country; Tweet quietly disappears

Rest easy, Joe Biden, because House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has your back on this:

Africa is a country? Nancy Pelosi must read Vox. https://t.co/7NDVzx3ogZ

Okay, unlike Biden’s minor slip-up, this is a legit gaffe. Dear @NancyPelosi, Africa is not a country … you dingus: pic.twitter.com/7aIURjVtlv

Pelosi had to tweet it to find out what was in it, and it was soon deleted:

Hey @NancyPelosi, you must’ve accidentally deleted this tweet, here’s a screen shot so you can repost it: pic.twitter.com/ugZaWLQuhq

@NancyPelosi @OfficialCBC Of course the dummy deleted the tweet. I hope she doesn’t wag that boney finger at you, intern (unpaid).

For a tweet from @NancyPelosi to be deleted, it must be really stupid.

Pass a geography book so you can find out what’s in it @NancyPelosi
