The Trump administration sent an email to all its supporters named "Darren" on Friday, with the only problem being that a whole lot of people not named Darren got the email, too:
With Darren's support, and the support of all Americans, the president can make America great again, the email claims.
The chances of actual Darrens receiving the email is probably fairly high, with the name peaking as the 52nd most popular boys' name in the mid-1960s. Unfortunately, there are a lot more people with names that are not Darren who are probably just confused right now.
