An argument roiled Twitter on Monday as users debated whether Donald Trump had a rhetorical nip slip and dropped the word "titties" instead of "cities" during his economic policy speech in Detroit.

Look, the man said titties. There's no way around it:https://vine.co/v/5baZAm9Jg6L

Some said Trump's slip of the tongue was payback for his mischaracterization of Hillary Clinton's words last week. 

Trump's campaign claimed Clinton said she was going to raise taxes on the middle class. However, they were choosing to mishear her pronunciation of "are" and "aren't." (Spoiler alert: She did not say she was going to raise taxes on the middle class.)

I'm guessing this "Trump said 'titties'" story is karma payback for the Clinton middle class taxes thing. #trump

Other Twitter users fired up the way back machine and mashed up Trump's "titties" comment with Saturday Night Live's "Celebrity Jeopardy" skit, which pokes fun at the ineptitude of celebrities who play the popular quiz show.

Most just had to laugh that a presidential candidate mistakenly said titties on national television.

I could've gone without hearing Trump saying the word "titties" thank u very muchpic.twitter.com/5L4YpkQGkc

If Trump were running on rebuilding titties, he'd probably stand a good chance of getting a lot of women voters to take a 2nd look.

Trump really did follow the teleprompter beautifully up until he screamed the word "titties"https://vine.co/v/5baZAm9Jg6L

Oh 2016, never change.
