Obscure word found in legal documents and dusty old history books. Trump doesn't need a special additional term to improve on the who, why, what and where of things.DRSB wrote:Merriam-Webster: definition of suzerain

He's no suzerain, he's a robber baron.

We can certain talk of Trump's suzerainian ambitions.

Re: The suzerain Trump
Many aspects of the Trump phenomenon are just unspeakable, beyond words, many people are in stupour, unable to make head or tails of it, so yes, being at a loss for words calls for obscure terms to convey this groping for sense and meaning.Crumple wrote:We all know what Fuhrer means these days so maybe it'll stick in time.DRSB wrote:Obscure word for an obscure phenomenon like Trump.Crumple wrote:Obscure word found in legal documents and dusty old history books.

Re: The suzerain Trump
The 'Make America Great Again' mythology as espoused by Trump, that the US, through him, can, should, and must dominate and control the economic activity of other nations, is certainly suzerainesque.

Equally though, enlisting Russia's help adds one more layer of absurdity and sort of defeats the purpose.

Re: The suzerain Trump
I don't know if Trump or his campaign enlisted Russia in that respect. My personal view is that Russia probably just wanted to chuck some spanners in the machinery and make the US look ridiculous. The fact that Trump got elected is just a bonus.

Re: The suzerain Trump
As Trump Signals Climate Action Pull Back, Local Leaders Push Forward.
Looks like local mayors and governors are determined to go ahead with green energy plans regardless of what Trump and his cartoon-villain cronies say. I'm hoping to see more of this. Over the next four years America needs to become The United States of Fuck Trump.

Confirmation of what we've all suspected. Trump supporters live in an alternate reality.
