<p>US President Donald Trump sent a lot of people, including reporters, scurrying for dictionaries when he posted an odd tweet that used the word -covfefe-.</p>
<p>Trump wrote on Twitter in the early morning hours of May 31: "Despite the constant negative press covfefe"</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Despite the constant negative press covfefe</p>
&mdash; Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/869766994899468288">May 31, 2017</a></blockquote>

<p>It left many of his 31 million followers on Twitter baffled, and slightly concerned.</p>
<p>Most people think he meant to write "press coverage," and it was a typo/spelling error. The strange tweet remained up for at least an hour after it first appeared presumably Trump-s press team was sleeping, reported Heavy.com</p>
<p>More than 73,000 people retweeted the tweet in just 120 minutes, and it earned its own hashtag.</p>
<p>Twitter had a field day.</p>

<p>USA Today points out that, even if the president meant to write "despite the constant negative press coverage," it-s still not clear what he was talking about since the sentence cuts off.</p>
<p>Much has been written about Trump-s novel use of Twitter. He says he uses it to communicate to people outside the media filter and, of course, supporters argue he won the election doing things his way. Recent reports indicated that his lawyers might start vetting his tweets, though. Judging from "covfefe," it doesn-t appear that anyone-s vetting them yet, wrote Heavy.com.</p>
<p>Trump responded to the blacklash by first deleting the tweet and then acting as if he intended to tweet the word -covfefe-.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Who can figure out the true meaning of "covfefe" ??? Enjoy!</p>
