Trump’s tweeted typo covfefe becoming vanity license plates

AUGUSTA, Maine

President Donald Trump’s mysterious tweeted typo covfefe is coming soon to a license plate near you.

The Maine Department of Motor Vehicles confirms someone claimed COVFEFE for a personalized license plate just hours after the Republican president’s now-infamous tweet at 12:06 a.m. Wednesday. Media reported it’s also happening in other states, including Nebraska and North Carolina.

The word took social media by storm after the president tweeted about “constant negative press covfefe.” Trump later poked fun at it, saying, “Who can figure out the true meaning of ‘covfefe’ ??? Enjoy!”

Whoever claimed the Maine plate remains just as much a mystery as the word itself.

Painting break on water tower results in town greeting visitors with ‘sex’

SUSSEX, Wis.

A water tower emblazoned with the word “sex” greeted drivers as they passed through a town in southeast Wisconsin, thanks to an ill-timed painting break. The gaffe turned up in Sussex, a village about 20 miles northwest of Milwaukee.

WTMJ-TV reported that workers painting the town’s name on the water tower stopped midway through to allow the paint to dry Wednesday. Village Administrator Jeremy Smith told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel the word was fully covered by late Thursday morning.

One driver, Jessica Bruss, told the Milwaukee television station she “almost drove off the road” when her 8-year-old son pointed out the word as they drove past the water tower Wednesday on their way to his first baseball game.

Bruss said the unfinished paint work may be funny for adults, but added: “People should remember that kids are seeing it.”
