Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News

Trump posted a mysterious message on his Truth Social account on Sunday that left people puzzled, at least for a little while. In the midst of a posting spree in which he attacked the media, blamed former President Joe Biden for Russia's war on Ukraine, and defended himself after last week's seemingly unproductive meeting with Vladimir Putin, the president posted a message with just four letters: "Bela."

Many observers wondered if this was the 2025 version of "covfefe," a message he posted on X then called Twitter that quickly became a meme in 2017.

"Despite the constant negative press covfefe," he wrote at the time in a post that was never explained and eventually deleted.

The "Bela" message came one day after the anniversary of the Aug. 16, 1956, death of screen icon Bela Lugosi, best known for his portrayal of Dracula in the 1931 film of the same name.

I thought Wally Nauta had orders to administer the full dosage of all Trump's necessary meds, prescribed and otherwise, at bedtime. Guess not.

to say he's doing it again implies that he had stopped at some point.
