Donald Trump
Donald Trump is an American businessman and politician who served as the 45th President of the United States (2017–2021) and was elected to a second term in 2024.
His name has become shorthand for a combative, populist political style marked by inflammatory rhetoric and disregard for conventional norms: The candidate went full Trump at the rally.
As a verb, to trump someone is to outdo or defeat them, though this sense predates him.
Trumpism denotes his political movement and ideology.
