I'm not convinced.

A transliteration of the arabic comes back as "Saakif"  I suppose if you heard it said, it might sound like Covfefe (with a soft C), but I'd need more than what is in the article to accept it.

If the screencaps are to be believed, Google tried to make what they thought to be a poor transliteration into a misspelling just to make Trump look bad. That seems extreme, even for those snakes.

But, I've been surprised by the pettiness of our "betters" many times before.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought
