Trumpence - A new noun in the English language,

[MineralMan]

already having several definitions:

1. The price a moron pays to be the Republican nominee for President.
2. A trifling sum of money, not worth picking up off the street.
3. The state of being an abject moron.

[Binkie The Clown]

[MineralMan]

2. Yes, exactly the correct usage.

3. "You would sell out your country for a Trumppence."

I may use the British spelling, with any GOPpers I know...

5. I can accept the alternate spelling, but I do wish the

British would learn to speak and write English correctly.

11. Before the years has ended we would've encountered massive trumpence!

From these two!

Is it trumppence or trumpence? Which is the noun, verb, adjective, or adverb, again? What about the superlative?

[MineralMan]

14. Apparently, according to a reply above, the British spell

it with a double "p." The British are decidedly weird, though, although I don't want to colour them in a bad light or subject them to any dishonour. Still, they remain incapable of pronouncing words that end with the letter "r" properly, so I don't see how they deserve much credit for skill with the English language, which is only spoken property in the United States of America.

Plus, the British commonly mistake the trunk of a car for a type of footwear and the hood of the car for an antiquated women's hat.
