New Delhi: Internet is a merciless place where people need to tread very carefully before posting anything as a minor mistake can result in endless trolling and US President Donald Trump, who is not known for his correct spellings, is troll’s favourite prey. In his latest error on the micro-blogging site Twitter on which Trump is proactive, he misspelt the word scot-free and triggered a series of jokes in the comment section.


While tweeting about his former personal Michael Cohen who pleaded guilty to lying to Congress about a real estate deal, Trump wanted to write that he should not get off scot-free (which means avoiding punishment), but he ended up writing ''Scott Free". The error by the 72-year American President started what can be called a mini search operation for some man named Scott Free.

“Michael Cohen asks judge for no Prison Time,” You mean he can do all of the TERRIBLE, unrelated to Trump, things having to do with fraud, big loans, Taxis, etc., and not serve a long prison term? He makes up stories to get a GREAT & ALREADY reduced deal for himself, and get…” Trump’s first tweet read.

It was followed by its continuation which read: “...his wife and father-in-law (who has the money?) off Scott Free. He lied for this outcome and should, in my opinion, serve a full and complete sentence.”

The name Scott Free in the second tweet left the Twitterati cracked up.
