Wait, what Trumpian phrases are you using?
I call myself a stable genius on a regular basis
"We need to shut thing down until we figure out how it happens."
Covfefe
very legal very cool (how he describes his business dealings with Russia)
so amazing + will never forget (what he wrote in the Holocaust museum visitors book)
(Note that every answer is someone intentionally using a phrase to make fun of him, not unknowingly using a phrase because of "how much he impacted the language" )
(Okay now that I think about it, I guess people who don't know wouldn't be answering the question, but I still think that the premise is silly)
"Tested negatively, that is, positively towards negative, tested perfectly"
It's funny because I remember being confused by the terms when I was a kid. To see a president worry about it was bonkers.
Admiral general aladeen fixed this problem by standardizing terminology.
I regularly say "Art of the deal" ironically when I observe someone win in a low stakes negotiation. I guess that's also kinda it's always sunny but it's definitely trumpian as well
We do a little trolling.
"more and more people are saying it"
China pronounced as “jina”
“Fake news” (ironically)
“Worst blank in the history of blank, maybe ever”
Also fuck Trump. Should’ve been 3 inches more accurate.
I also use Jina now and it really bothers me, but I can't pronounce it correctly anymore. He ruined me.
✊😔
“It is what it is”
i don't think he coined that one, though he is terrifically old, so maybe he did 75 plus years ago, idk. i'm sure he would happily take credit for it if it got people to pay attention to him.
Dictionary.com
yep, which is why i said more than 75 years ago. he'd've had to have coined it prior to the publication of that article.
Yeah, I was agreeing with you, just adding further info for anyone else who's curious.
+1 for "bigly"
"Many such cases", "bigly", "very, very large brain", "good genes", "This has been the worst trade deal in the history of trade deals, maybe ever" and "and some, I assume, are good people" have involuntary become part of my vocabulary.
We use covfefe a lot in our house, as well
My favorite is "to a lesser extent Tiffany" I add that shit to everything
lol hadn’t seen the clip
I'm sorry for your loss.
"And some, I assume, are good people" has entered my vocabulary, but in mockery of that attitude
MEXICANS.
He lives in Mexico’s hat and can only make an ASSUMPTION that there are at least two Mexican-born persons in the US who are good people.
Glad y’all also remember this one b/c it’s mind numbing.

I just love how the last part parses.
They're rapists. And some (of those rapists?), I assume, are good people.
It's ridiculous, but also he probably does think some rapists are good people.
Surely he knows he isn't a good person?
I don't he ever thinks about goodness as a concept, other than to mention it performatively while grifting people.
I often say “it’s yuge” 😔
Don't worry, you can just say you got that from Bernie.
Wow, that’s yuger! Shoulda thought of that
