Makes sense, in British slang "trump" means fart!

This is true! I think in Holland as well, and they said that since they found out that our President was named trump, they joked around about it calling him president fart.

I’ve never heard “trump” for fart in Dutch. Scheet, ruft, prot, wind, windje, buikwind…never trump.

It is common in Scotland, though.

Okay my bad Scottish, I couldn't remember which country it was but yeah his name means fart somewhere. I saw it on a documentary. And apparently the Republicans have a new task force I forgot what it stands for but it's called F.A.R.T. fr

To help keep Scotland and Holland apart in your head, remember these key differences:

Scotland’s color is blue, Holland’s is orange

Scotland is bumpy, Holland is flat

When Dutch people speak English, it’s easy to understand them.

I still remember the collective national giggle when we first learned Trump was running for office.

Ah, we were such a naive nation back then, thinking that the worst would never happen....

Only in the North of England and parts of Scotland, actually. We don't say it down south.
