I love it when someone lives up to their name. A different name would have been a huge mistake for him. But I'm guessing he may be thinking of changing his name by deed poll right now.

Lovely, isn't it?  Like a Mr and Mrs Ketch calling their offspring Jack, for instance.   But who in the literature of which he would know nothing is Trump?  Is there a Trump - or maybe an Olifaunt - who appears as a gross, incompetent vulgarian in a classical or renaissance work, for instance?  Old Gropey would't be aware of that, either.
