At an interview hosted by Recode on Wednesday, one of the moderators brought up covfefe -- a word that took on a life of its own after Trump tweeted a few minutes after midnight: "Despite the constant negative press covfefe." (The tweet has since been deleted).
'Covfefe' tells you all you need to know about Donald Trump
"I thought it was a hidden message to the Russians," Clinton said, to laughter from the audience.
(At the crack of dawn on Wednesday, Trump had tweeted: "Who can figure out the true meaning of 'covfefe' ??? Enjoy!")
