I must admit by listening to Donald Trump I realise we are quite lucky with our politicians. There is a chance he could even become President, yet over a third of his party's supporters think the current president is a Muslim and a good number don't believe he is even American.

Having lived in Manchester for a few years in my youth I can reliably advise that the word 'trump' to northerners is an onomatopoeic reference to the act of breaking wind.

Up north they also call it tooting, which amuses many when they see it on the front of a London bus for the first time.
