Al Sharpton on Sunday invoked his late friend and legendary singer Aretha Franklin, who died Thursday at the age of 76, and her iconic version of the song "Respect" during a segment criticizing President Donald Trump's comments about former White House aide Omarosa Manigault-Newman on MSNBC. Unfortunately, however, Sharpton misspelled the titular word.
During a segment in which he critiqued Trump's usage of the word "dog" to criticize Manigault-Newman, Sharpton said, "In the words of my late friend Aretha Franklin, show some 'R-E-S-P-I-C-T.'"
