TV host John Oliver gives Trump his old family name back: Drumpf
“Last Week Tonight” host John Oliver tried to re-brand Donald Trump’s campaign to, “Make Donald Drumpf again” and it has been trending on Facebook and Twitter.
Trump’s original family name was Drumpf, according to a biography cited by Oliver during the show, and he wants to re-brand Trump away from the ideas of wealth, power and money that his name often connotes now.
Oliver purchased the website Donaldjdrumpf.com, is selling hats that say “Make Donald Drumpf again” and has tried to trademark the “Drumpf” name.
What do you think of Oliver's take on Trump?
