Republican front-runner Donald Trump has made his fair share of mistakes in the eyes of many during his campaign, but his latest mistake is a quite literal one. Trump’s presidential campaign was recently endorsed by the legendary former Indiana basketball coach Bobby Knight.
Of course, Trump had to thank such a sports figure for the support, and took to Twitter on Monday in order to do so.
But there was just one slight issue with Trumps tweet: he misspelled Knight’s name.
The presidential candidate accidentally spelled the coach’s surname “Knight” as “Night.”

Trump did make sure to correct himself, though. The misspelled tweet was taken down in a more than timely manner, and replaced by a nearly identical one – spelled correctly this time.
I will be campaigning in Indiana all day. Things are looking great, and the support of Bobby Knight has been so amazing. Today will be fun!

Indiana is set to hold both their Republican and Democratic primaries this Tuesday, where Trump is hoping to prevail over opponents John Kasich and Ted Cruz.
