Are there any circumstances when the article 'a' is used before the word 'answer'?

Generally, we use the article "an" before the word "answer", because it starts with the sound of a vowel. But "a" is also used before this word:

  1. Above all things never show an inmate fear or your uncertainty of a situation! If you don't know a answer say "No" because it's easier to switch a no to a yes then a yes to a no later. And whatever you do, don't panic and stay firm on your answer. — Matthew Zamborowski
  1. The problem is that Trump isn’t enough of a answer-avoiding politician, said Carson.

My question is, is there any situation when "a" is used before the word "answer" instead of "an"?

Are the above cited uses of "a" correct?
