'Forrest Trump': President's Latest Bonkers Typo Sends Twitter Into Tailspin
President Donald Trump became a laughingstock on Twitter with yet another embarrassing typo on Wednesday morning.
This time, Trump twice wrote “forrest” instead of “forest” in a rant about the management of the wildfires that spread across California late last year:
He later deleted the post and replaced it with this one, which corrects the misspellings:
Billions of dollars are sent to the State of California for Forest fires that, with proper Forest Management, would never happen. Unless they get their act together, which is unlikely, I have ordered FEMA to send no more money. It is a disgraceful situation in lives & money!

Trump’s gaffe was inevitably picked up by Twitter users, who responded with clips of the hit 1994 movie “Forrest Gump” starring Tom Hanks.
I was thinking Gump. Forrest Trump.

TFW you're imagining a Trump biopic remake of Forrest Gump directed by Zack Snyder and produced by Steve Mnuchin so vividly you have to sit down

We would expect nothing less from a man who can't spell forest.

Someone in Trump’s address book must be called Forrest, or does he truly think it’s spelled like that? pic.twitter.com/AD4FyLiAqt

Forrest Management gave us Elvis’s dance, Watergate, Bubba Shrimp, Apple, the lyrics to Imagine and those Have A Nice Day T-shirt’s. Trump is right here. Could definitely handle some fires. https://t.co/2Bb5klFPaf
