Hillary Clinton joined in on the “covfefe” fun Wednesday night — using the now-viral spelling gaffe in a Twitter jab at President Trump.
“People in covfefe houses shouldn’t throw covfefe,” Clinton tweeted around 9:30 p.m., in response to a post by POTUS, in which he blasted her for an interview she gave earlier in the day.
The former Secretary of State and Democratic candidate ranted for more than an hour during the Q&A session about why she believed she lost the election — never once placing blame on herself.
She instead listed a slew of sources, including Russian hackers, fake news, former FBI director James Comey and even the Democratic Party.
“Crooked Hillary Clinton now blames everybody but herself, refuses to say she was a terrible candidate. Hits Facebook & even Dems & DNC,” Trump tweeted around 8:40 p.m.
Clinton’s response came less than an hour later, sparking scores of tweets from both the left and right.
“Yes! Not only does he throw covfefe…HE’S FULL OF IT!!” wrote one Twitter user.
“Real World” star Chet Cannon tweeted, “No, @HillaryClinton, you don’t get to covfefe.”
Irish web designer Youssef Sarhan added, “Petty. Both of you. Now go to your rooms.”
What house is he in again??? That's what I thought. You're trying too hard. https://t.co/9Yomz1Emb5

The “covfefe” phenomenon ultimately stems from a tweet that President Trump fired off early Wednesday, which contained a glaring typo. Instead of saying the word, “coverage,” he accidentally wrote out “covfefe.”
“Despite the constant negative press covfefe,” Trump tweeted just after midnight.
The post set the Internet ablaze, with countless people pondering what he actually meant to say.
Even Trump, himself, poked fun at the mistake.
“Who can figure out the true meaning of “covfefe” ??? Enjoy!” he later tweeted.
