Donald Trump set social media ablaze on Sunday morning with a baffling Truth Social post, leading some to wonder if he’s having a repeat of his infamous “covfefe” moment. The former president was praising the Border Patrol Union following his visit to the Arizona-Mexico border but his message quickly devolved into a jumble of typos and unfinished thoughts.
Trump’s post, which was meant to commend the Border Patrol Union for their dedication, read: “These are great patriots who work their hearts out to have a Strong and Powerfulnnz Border, only to be harassed by Border Czar Kamala Harris, who wants the.” The message trailed off abruptly in the early hours of Sunday morning, leaving readers puzzled.
The post was swiftly deleted, but not before it had been widely shared and ridiculed online. Reactions ranged from playful jabs like, “How do I like my covfefe? Strong and powerfulnnz,” to more concerned queries, “Is Donald Trump stroking out? He just stopped mid-sentence.”
This gaffe brings back memories of Trump’s 2017 “covfefe” tweet, which also became a viral sensation due to its cryptic and unfinished nature. The former president’s latest slip seems to reflect ongoing issues with coherence, as he continues to focus on personal attacks rather than policy.

In recent weeks, Trump has targeted Kamala Harris, branding her as a “communist” and critiquing her as a replacement for Biden. His post’s erratic nature has fueled speculation that he might be struggling to maintain his usual command, especially in light of rising Democratic momentum.
Longtime Trump observer Maggie Haberman noted that Trump’s recent behavior suggests he’s particularly unsettled by the Democratic presidential nominee. During a recent Fox News interview, Trump appeared frustrated and reactive, especially when confronted with Harris’s increasing visibility in the race.
Haberman observed, “He’s very reactive … when he is not in command,” highlighting that Trump’s current state reflects a broader pattern of agitation and disarray as he tries to reassert himself on the national stage.
Some social medial users wondered whether the former president was having a medical emergency.
“Is Donald Trump stroking out?
He just stopped mid-sentence,” one user wrote. Others suggested that he may have been on drugs.

Thank goodness the Nazis were never able to get production of the Powerfulnnz figured out before the end of the war. https://t.co/ES3mFT3iK3
