As TheWrap recently reported, Donald Trump is pretty active — and boisterous — on Twitter, but he might want to proofread his tweets going forward.

The soldiers were wearing uniforms of the Waffen-SS — a unit that served as the combat arm of the Schutzstaffel, according to the Jewish Virtual Library.
The Trump campaign is blaming an intern for the now-deleted tweet.
“A young intern created and posted the image and did not see the very faded figures within the flag of the stock photo,” a campaign spokesperson said. “The intern apologized and immediately deleted the tweet.”
