Don't tell this to the hundreds of people who reply "Drumpf will be impeached #RESIST" to every single one of his tweets. The realization that he has never read a single one of their tweets might be enough cause a heart attack
On a tangent, what is the deal with the "Drumpf" thing? It was his family name some time ago, so is this just the other sides' "Barack Hussein Obama" or is there more to it?
Other posters have not given the actual reason for this.
It is from HBO's Last Week Tonight. The joke is that Trump made fun of Jon Stewart for changing his last name in a tweet [1], which is silly because his family did the same.
>I promise you that I'm much smarter than Jonathan Leibowitz - I mean Jon Stewart @TheDailyShow. Who, by the way, is totally overrated.
Correct me if I am wrong here, but if I recall it correctly, Jon Stewart made that name change himself (as your comment and linked source implies), while in Trump's case, it was not done by himself, it was something that his father had done in his life (or maybe even grandfather?).
That is something fundamentally different, but Last Week Tonight is just some comedy show, so one should not expect too much here.
> It was his family name some time ago, so is this just the other sides' "Barack Hussein Obama" or is there more to it?
No, it's not the same thing. The Hussein thing is that the Alt-Right uses it to imply Obama being a Muslim (which he is not) and thus, by extension, a terrorist supporter/enabler.
I don't know about that. Whenever I've seen "Drumpf" used it seems to be trying to associate Trump with Nazis (because it's German) which is very similar to purposely using "Hussein" (which is Arabic) to associate Obama with Muslim extremists.
