    In British slang if you fart we sometimes say you Trump, or Trumpet. Can we refer to Trumps posts and speeches as Trumpets?

      Well, on Mastodon they are already called “toots”, which is kind of American slang for a fart anyway. So ya, switching to calling them “Trumps” is not far off…

      I played the trumpet for several years and I love that instrument. It’s bad enough that the names coincide; please don’t make it worse 😭
