Thought to have been a typo by 45th President of The United States of America, Donald Trump in his tweet which read "Despite the constant negative press covfefe." The internet ran wild with this, mostly liberal democrats using it to make fun of The President. The word actually has a meaning, which pertains to the rest of the tweet he made. Yiddish in origin, Covfefe means "A futile search" or "a pointless and false quest". It was originally transliterated from Hebrew as "Kabfefe," whose etymology is "Kab"-relating to the mystical Qabalah - and "fefe," which is a word for "Butterfly." What Trump was actually saying in Yiddish tweet-speak was "We are doing great things despite the press's negative and pointless search, aka fake news." Looks like The President was playing 4D chess once again.
