Generally I do this either in E&E or the Science forums, but I approve of the term and I do believe it will become part of the language.

The word "Trump" itself, which was generally a term for strength until the orange nightmare was able to cheat his way into the White House, will now be corrupted and the original meaning will become archaic.

It will also come to mean "ignorant" and "stupid" and "delusional."
