Short for “Make America Greater Again, Make Americans Think Harder.” A 2024 slogan to Trumpublicans to make America numerate or quantitatively literate again, by not having Asian immigrants or naturalized Americans but white natives as mathletes to represent the USA at international olympiads.
Chanting his MAGA MATH mantra at rallies, Donald J. Trump promises his blue-collar supporters that only true-blue white Americans would be allowed to be part of the US math teams at all regional and international contests and competitions, and not alien mathletes or math imports.

A four-function calculator, marketed by the newly created educational arm of Trump Organization, that is designed with some broken or disabled keys, so that users would need to figure out how to perform basic math calculations without them—a limited number of the dear malfunctioned collectible will be available, as part of raising funds to help defray the high costs of the ex-president’s lawsuits.
A trumpulator will be promoted as a Xmas gift of choice for privileged white kids of wealthy Trumpublicans at annual state Republican meetings in coming months.

What Christians experience when they are supernaturally visited by the Holy Spirit—a common outward sign is they start to speak in tongues or laugh uncontrollably.
Unlike a strong wind that both believers and unbelievers can feel or hear outdoors, the spiritual wind is usually experienced only by Christians indoors, be it in a church congregation or in a home fellowship of a few believers.

When someone tries all deceitful ways to cover up any previous falsehoods, or to avoid looking incompetent, inefficient, or untrustworthy in the face of difficulties or new ethical challenges.
