This is what I get for falling asleep before midnight. I don’t have a lot in common with the 45th President of the United States, but we’re both Twitter addicts. And very early this morning, he tweeted this:
Sometimes I want Trump to stop tweeting. Sometimes I want him to continue. Sometimes I think it doesn’t matter. Right now, somehow it’s all three.
And now everybody’s going insane. Or, more accurately, they’re continuing to be insane. #Covfefe is now the top Twitter trending topic worldwide, and the memes are flying.

Etc. Might as well have fun with it, right?
Look, I don’t like that the President of the United States is blurting out every little thing that crosses his mind, 24 hours a day on the Internet. That seems like a bad idea. But then, I’m also in the anti-anti-Trump camp, so I enjoy the way he drives everybody nuts. They still can’t accept that he won, they can’t believe any of this is happening even though They’re With Her, and it’s fun to watch them gibber and climb the walls.
This is how things are now. Some of it is good, some of it is bad. None of it is as good as you think it is right now, but none of it is as bad as you think it is right now. Either way, there’s nothing you or I can do about it.
I’ve accepted it, and now there’s a word for that feeling: covfefe.
That’s the way the cookie covfefes!
