Covfefe? Jokes abound on Twitter after President Trump’s incomplete, late-night tweet
President Donald Trump confounded a nation with an incomplete tweet, sent just after 11 p.m. Tuesday night:
“Despite the constant negative press covfefe”
Because it's still there, four and a half hours later …

Hours passed without clarification from the president, spurring thousands to posit their own definitions.
It's been five minutes. What if this is it. That is his final tweet & the rest of history stops.

The Lawrence Police Department’s Twitter account even joined the covfefe kerfuffle.
Trump himself acknowledged the incomplete tweet, which has since been deleted.
Who can figure out the true meaning of "covfefe" ??? Enjoy!
