H.R.2884 - COVFEFE Act of 2017
Communications Over Various Feeds Electronically For Engagement Act of 2017 or the COVFEFE Act of 2017
It's... It's right fucking there lol. It wasn't a typo, it was a hint.
Not a "well fucking played" in this instance. It was a Democrat who introduced the bill and he named the bill using COVFEFE as an acronym to mock the President.
Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL5) introduced the COVFEFE Act, H.R. 2884, to permanently archive all of a president’s social media posts, including tweets from any personal non-governmental accounts used during their term(s) of office. It would add the phrase “any personal and official social media account” to the Presidential Records Act of 1978.
With the full name of the Communications Over Various Feeds Electronically for Engagement (COVFEFE) Act, the bill is attracting attention for its acronym but actually addresses a legitimate issue.
It was 100% a simple typo on a tweet sent by mistake. The original tweet reads "Despite the constant negative press covfefe" and then abruptly ends. It was supposed to read "press coverage".
He made a typo and then after all the mocking, unrelated politicians -- all democrats -- came up with the abbreviation name (C.O.V.F.E.F.E.) as reference.
And the mock bill didn't even pass.
The fact people are unable to grasp this reads like satire.

Edit: This deserves its own post.

President Troll, I LOVE this! Great share!!!
Didn’t know that. Sorry.
Where do you see it was passed? Someone dug deeper and said it was only submitted to Congress.
I corrected & owned the mistake.
