The man who audited Trump's social-media company misspelled his own name 14 different ways
The accountant hired to audit former President Donald Trump’s media company seemed to have a lot of trouble spelling his name, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday.
Ben F Borgers, the founder and managing partner of the accounting firm BF Borgers, spelled his name 14 different ways in regulatory filings for the Trump Media and Technology Group, the Financial Times reported, citing data it had reviewed from the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.
Some variations, like Ben F Brogers and Ben F orgers, appeared to be minor spelling mistakes. But others, like Blake F Borgers and Ben F Vonesh, were entirely different names.

These spelling snafus aren’t the first time Borgers’ work has been scrutinized.
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board said it identified multiple deficiencies in every audit it had received from Borgers’ accounting firm in the past two years, Bloomberg reported on April 8.
In November, Borgers’ firm was also removed from the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ peer-review program.
BF Borgers, the organization said, was “so seriously deficient in its performance that education and remedial, corrective actions are not adequate.”
