Former Penn State coach Joe Paterno died in 2012. Donald Trump may not have gotten the news.
While speaking to a crowd in Pittsburgh on Wednesday, Trump inquired about Paterno:
“How’s Joe Paterno? We gonna bring that back? How about that whole deal?”

Trump may have been referring to the Joe Paterno statue that was removed after Paterno’s death, but then why would he also ask about his well-being? It was strange, to say the least.
Right before that, Trump was discussing bringing the coal industry back to Pittsburgh, which was an odd segue to Paterno. Many were confused:
Maybe it was the statue, maybe not, but Trump has to know Paterno died, right?
