But some on the internet want to know what President Trump was talking about with his “bela” post.

Trump at 8:31 a.m. on Sunday posted the one-word message on his Truth Social media account. The word means beautiful in Italian if spelled with a double L, as “bella.”

Perhaps the president was looking at something, outside or on television, that sparked him to send the message. Whatever it was, it had a number of notables weighing in.

Trump and California Gov. Gavin Newsom have been feuding, and the Democrat’s press office took the occasion to argue it is winning.

“We broke Donald Trump,” Newsom’s press office wrote in response to the “bela” post.
