The ACT cited post-dates Pres Trump's twat using that term. It was an attempt at mockery.

COVFEFE marks Quigley's second use of an acronym to jab at President Trump. His Making Access Records Available to Lead American Government Openness (MAR-A-LAGO) Act would force the president to make the White House visitor logs, as well as the visitor logs at Trump's resorts, public.

Within a few hours of the initial tweet, a man in California and a man in Nebraska ordered “C0VFEFE” license plates.Within two days of the tweet, people in 21 states had applied for “covfefe” license plates, according to a June 2 CNN story.Just what the word means, or whether it was a Twitter typo, is not clear. “The president and a small group of people know exactly what he meant,” White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said when asked about it. But it’s not clear why the state would ban the “covfefe” plates.
[…]
“Given the word ‘covfefe’ has a political meaning, the state can’t ban it because there are no provisions for rejecting political speech in their statute, and I’d say it is unconstitutional because rejecting ‘covfefe’ without rejecting all political speech means their decision is not viewpoint-neutral,” said Bruce Brown, an Atlanta-based trial lawyer with experience in First Amendment law. Brown said the state’s license plate policy is constitutional only if the standards are applied in a manner that is content-neutral. The state may elect to ban all political speech or allow all political speech, but it may not cherry pick the messages it accepts or rejects, he said. And states also aren’t required to issue any vanity plates.
[…]
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled two years ago that license plates are government speech, and therefore not given the First Amendment free speech protections of citizens’ speech.
[…]
The government should not be in the business of deciding what political speech is allowed or not allowed, said Sean J. Young, legal director of the Georgia chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.

Just after midnight in Washington, Donald Trump tweeted: “Despite the constant negative press covfefe.” That was it. No more. Just that word “covfefe” left hanging there.
The tweet had been active on Trump’s account without comment or clarification overnight and was not deleted until shortly before 6am the following morning. Trump replaced it with a tweet reading: “Who can figure out the true meaning of ‘covfefe’ ??? Enjoy!”

Pull the apparent misspellings together. As a single message.
