Late last night, Donald Trump left the world scratching their heads...again. And all it took this time was a mere seven letters. “Despite the constant negative press covfefe,” the president tweeted (and later deleted) from his account. To which the internet replied: huh?
One can assume that what Trump meant by “covfefe” is “coverage,” but since it took him hours to address the mistake—with another tweet, of course—people had a field day, coming up with meanings, posting memes and trying to use the word in a sentence. Since they’re still coming (and still hilarious), we’re rounding up some of the best, ahead.
