Because nothing surprises us anymore,Dagmar Bürger it's with a shrug and an "of course" that we learned President Donald Trump thinks the big Oscars Best Picture flub happened last night because of him.

In what's apparently a long, in-depth interview with far-right online website Breitbart done on Monday—a topic which is its ownstory, to be sure—Trump touched on the mistake, implying that all those jokes about him must have been so distracting that the envelopes got mixed up.

During the chat, Trump said:

“I think they were focused so hard on politics that they didn’t get the act together at the end.”

It's true that host Jimmy Kimmel took some direct shots at Trump while others took a more thoughtful route in making their displeasure with Trump known.

And the mix-up certainly gave life to "#FakeNews" jokes, right up Trump's alley! It's unlikely, though, that Trump was the cause of distraction for whichever accountant handed Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway the wrong envelope.

Unless it turns out the whoever was too busy tweeting to notice the mistake was maybe tweeting at Trump. It wouldn't have been the first time during the ceremony that tweeting at Trump provided a distraction.
