describing someone I considered a jerk, until I said it in a conversation with our Corp. lawyer, who was Jewish. I honestly had no idea! I'd even used it directly to people's faces. Haven't used it since.

That's the ONLY thing I defend the Trumpster on, but for this one, I give him a pass.

He's trying to have it both ways. Dog whistle for his supporters and a pathetic attempt to convince everyone else that he didn't actually mean what he meant.

GOPers loved the use of the word btw.

The way he used it, essentially she got fucked or screwed (but without the undertone of it being unfair)

He knows the meaning

I'm sorry but I don't believe for one minute that he's unaware of Yiddish vulgarities.

the way he did with Santorum..

and a older man and the lady selling the fish brought up Trump - both said he was an excuse for a human being.

and with a boxer stance calls: come on, let's see how tough you are.

Yea, a dream.

and not just 'urban dictionary' slang. Perhaps all of his audience didn't know what the word meant, but he certainly did. If my mother were alive at 93, she would know what it meant.

A few non-vulgar ones (although people know many of the vulgar ones as well). Spelling may vary, but almost all of these are recognized by the spell-checker dictionary:

maven
oy vey
chutzpah
kosher
kvetch
klutz
mazel tov
nosh
schlep
schmooze
spiel
etc etc

But what disorder do his supporters "suffer" from?

there is another word that means the same thing as well. That be Shmendrick, or at least that is according to my father, may he rest in peace... don't ask how we learned that one. but given that this one was used, I almost expect our favorite fascist to use that one too.

om New York. I just figured it was a bastardization of dong.
