Here is Abbott's post, let me know if you spot something that sticks out.


 

This looks like a very nice and heartfelt memorial post for our former president, but I'm sure you saw the "updated" just before the formal written statement... yeah, that's because the original had one tiny flaw that has sent the internet swirling.
