So what was President Trump trying to say? What does "covfefe" mean? Does it mean anything? It was at 12:06 a.m. ET Wednesday when the President of the United States tweeted this: "Despite the constant negative press covfefe." Looks like he meant to say "coverage".
A few hours later by 6 a.m. ET, the tweet had been deleted. And then soon after Mr. Trump tweeted this: "Who can figure out the true meaning of "covfefe" ??? Enjoy"
It's pretty obvious President Trump did what a lot of us have done. Tweet something out late at night with a typo or misspelled word and then not notice it until later. When we do it, we can feel embarrassed and also start thinking how crazy it is to be tweeting things that late at night as we are about to fall asleep (or maybe even fall asleep when we are tweeting).
And of course, it raises the question, for any of us and certainly for Donald Trump, about whether it's smart to be tweeting things out late at night Especially when you are President of the United States.
