And apparently, Trump is his VP.

He immediately caught and corrected himself on the Putin gaffe, saying his enemies have been on his mind lately... Didn't do so with the Trump gaffe.

Didn't it take like a good five seconds before he corrected himself? I wouldn't say that was "immediately".

All the same, according to his Wikipedia page, he's been known for such gaffes his whole career, the first mention of such is from 2009, as VP for Obama. So it's not a new phenomenon for him.
