    Depending on their body weight it will take about 10 to 15 glasses of the Kool-Aid. Cheers and happy weekend!

    Anyone with half a brain knows that the phrase didn't come about in regard to Donald Trump.  A bit of research shows that the first known use of trump up was in 1695.

    Trump once claimed he invented the phrase “prime the pump” but that phrase has been around since the mid 30s. Cheers and happy weekend!

    Trump makes a lot of spurious claims.

    Centuries from now will they still know?  There are all kinds of phrases we use that no one knows the origin.

    I don't expect to be around centuries from now, so I don't really care.

    Trump also means "fart" in British slang. It's also older than His Royal Orangeness, but it fits him.
