Dewey defeats Truman

(Noun) A large blunder or mistake; an inaccuracy

Today our sociology professor said that dolphins are fish. What a Dewey defeats Truman-she should check her facts.

"Shit! After I printed out my essay, I realized I had made a few punctuation and spelling errors."
"Hey, don't worry. It's no Dewey defeats Truman"

Dewey County Deputy

A cop (usually of smaller stature) that is untrustworthy and flaky. Thinks that since he’s a cop, people will be scared of him and not test his authority. Does not train for his job but instead, posts pictures on Facebook in uniform (to let the ladies know he’s a cop)

Man, that dude sure runs his mouth a lot!
He’s a Dewey County Deputy, what do you expect?
