No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

What does "Trumpis" mean?

The "i" might have been an intended apostrophe or Gunnar meant to write "Trumpski" in recognition of Trump's Russian allegiances.

A typo. I meant or tried to write "Trumpism." I have corrected it in the OP.

It's shorthand for a Trump's golden shower fetish.
