Contrary to the traditional apology or statement of regret for one's actions, the trumpology is where one actually doubles down, steers into the skid, and makes a comment that serves to inflate the original offense.
Trumpology ex #1:
Anderson Cooper: "Mr. Trump, many activists are demanding that you apologize for claiming that you will build a wall along the US-Mexico border if elected president. What do you have to say to them?"
The Donald: "We're gonna build a wall...and Mexico is going to pay for it!"
Trumpology ex #2:
Reporter: "Johnny, now that you've been released from the Browns, are you going to clean up your act?"
Johnny Manziel: "I'm living out in LA with my guy, Von Miller. We might be partying six nights a week but we're trying to get our lives together, bro. I just wanna ball, bro. I don't think there's anything wrong with partying, bro. There's a difference between partying and being out of control."

I can't believe the moderator let Trump get away with that statement. He totally flip-flopped on his immigration plan. John, you are watching the master at work, that's Trump using Trumpnesia to win the argument.

Trumpenese - The language President Trump uses to speak. Trumpenese is constructed using English words, however, the meaning behind those words is dynamic (i.e. "Alternative Facts' or 'Alternative Meaning'.) There are various dialects of Trumpenese, but the most common can be broken down as follows:
1. Projecting Trump's faults by declaring others' faults instead. See twitter for examples.
2. Using alternative facts, such as, "I'm like, a really smart guy." Or, "The Trump inauguration was viewed more than any other."
3. Insecurity Mix: A mix of the two dialects above, which usually consists of bashing someone else, then using alternative facts to make himself feel better, and hopes everyone agrees.
4. Butter-you-up approach: Tell everyone and anyone that he's their biggest supporter and he will do what it takes, regardless if at the time it contradicts everything else he has stated in the past. It feels good at the time, but makes you start to question your sanity as a normal human person.
5. Rambling Scary President: A good example of this, basically combines all of the above, where he talks about things that didn't happen (i.e. Rain stopping and starting magically, how the CIA will be unrestrained, and how "getting another chance at taking oil" may be a good idea, who knows?) It seems this dialect is the hardest to classify, because it flows so freely between them all.

"Crooked Hillary" is Trumpenese for, "I am very crooked myself, me, Mr. Trump!"
"The Trump inauguration was the most viewed in History." is Trumpenese for: "My inauguration was not as popular as some of the others."
"You all voted for me, right!?" (talking to 300+ CIA employees) is Trumpenese for: "I am an extremely insecure man."

Get the trumpnosis mug.A vague word or phrase used by Donald Trump. "Nom" stands for nominalization. Nominalizations are words used often in hypnotherapy. They usually involve turning verbs into nouns, but they can also be any word or phrase that is so vague and subjective that listeners are forced to insert their own subjective meanings. Statements containing nominalizations create in the minds of listeners the illusion that the message is directed directly at them when in reality listeners are simply filling in the vague words with their own ideas. In therapy, nominalizations can heal. In the political world of "smoke and mirrors", however, a TrumpNom is a mirror.
To discuss the physical characteristics of a cat is objective. To say a cat is the BEST cat you have ever seen...one that is FAR BETTER than the one across the street because that one is a DISASTER, it's UGLY, a NIGHTMARE, it LOVES EVERYTHING YOU HATE, and it FEELS TERRIBLE to pet, is to manipulate you using TrumpNoms.
