At least he is a alpha macho male with diarrhea of the mouth who is the world's biggest racist. He does not subscribe to being Politically Correct and always says what is on his mind even though what comes out of his mouth is mostly a boldfaced lie. At least he is honest.

But in the case of "Special Council" it's simply a misuse of the homonym of "Counsel". Spellchecker wouldn't know which word you intended to use. Technically it's not misspelled, it's misused.
What I don't know is, whether spellchecker is available as a cellphone ap?
Cheeto should look into that, or avoid cellphones altogether.

I use them often.
I'm really surprised because I don't have much correction to do. Mostly, it is because of a word very similar to a French one I misspelled, using the French spelling.
I'm proud of myself Or perhaps the corrector is not very efficient ?
