Former president’s body odor was called into question by a former congressman
Adam Kinzinger, a former Republican representative, encouraged people to ‘wear a mask’ when they’re in the presence of former president Donald Trump due to his apparent odor.
Mr Kinzinger, a vocal critic of Mr Trump, took to his Twitter account this week to insinuate that the former president possesses a strong smell.
“I’m genuinely surprised how people close to Trump haven’t talked about the odor,” Mr Kinzinger wrote earlier this week.
“It’s truly something to behold. Wear a mask if you can,” he added.
The accusation garnered a lot of attention on the platform, with many mocking the former president for his alleged smell.
In English (UK), the word “Trump” means “fart”.
e.g. “Eurgh! It stinks of rotten eggs! Who’s trumped?”
“It smells bad in here. Has someone done a trump?”
“Oh god, would you please stop trumping!”
“Go out into the corridor if you need to trump”
Is this the origin of trumpet? A horn to make fart noises?
It’s a good point actually, I’d sort of assumed it was the other way round, for farts that sound like trumpets.
