ARD Anchor's Slip: Trump Mistakenly Called 'Donald Duck' During Live Broadcast

Ingo Zamperoni's on-air gaffe draws laughs and references past comparisons between Trump and the cartoon character.

During a live segment from Washington D.C., ARD's Ingo Zamperoni mistakenly referred to Donald Trump as 'Donald Duck' before quickly correcting himself.
The slip occurred while Zamperoni was discussing Trump's potential reaction to an election loss with political scientist Liana Fix.
The mix-up was reminiscent of a previous intentional comparison made by Chris Christie during the 2023 Republican primaries, where he criticized Trump for avoiding a debate.
Liana Fix humorously acknowledged the incident on social media, adding to the lighthearted response it received online.
The incident occurred amidst a closely contested election between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, with results still pending.
