Language is alive. It constantly changes, words go out of use, new words come into being and describe new things, ideas and concepts. Just yesterday, the vocabulary of the English language has been enriched. Here’s what Urban Dictionary has to say about “covfefe”:

Covfefe
N.

Covfefe is the once secret name of an ancient tentacle monster that white supremacists fornicate with. The name was leaked to the public when Donald Trump, well known leaker of classified info, tweeted while relieving his arousal upon its girth. In the throes of passion, Trump cried out the name of his lover mid-tweet, EJACULATING IT INTO CYBERSPACE!

Transcript of the Incident:

Trump: Despite constant negative press-
Covfefe: *thrusts its engorged girth deep into its lover*
Trump: *consumed by the spell of EROS* Covfefe!

I’m pretty sure that the Oxford English Dictionary recorded a huge increase in traffic and search queries for “covfefe”.

But Seriously, What’s Going On?

Apparently, Trump misspelled “coverage” and this is how “covfefe” was born. The tweet was deleted and a new tweet has been tweeted:

You can guess what happened next.

The Internet Went Crazy

It’s no surprise that it escalated so quickly:

  1. It’s the president of the most powerful country in the world.
  2. It’s his yet another Twitter fail.

What’s more, the opinions about the current president are highly divided. Another Twitter faux pas by Trump fuels the opponents of his presidency who question his credentials.

Consequently, the social media buzz around “covfefe” has exploded. And so have the reactions from Brand24 which is a social media monitoring tool.
