   • 1988 February 1, Louis Menand, “The Triumph of Trumpery”, in The New Republic‎, New York, N.Y.: Republic Publishing Co., →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 7 June 2023:

     "Trump: The Art of the Deal" (fresh drumroll, please) is more forthcoming about the first wing of the Trump attack than it is about the second. The reason goes to the dark heart of Trumpery: the book is itself a craftily designed piece of public relations. That a businessman should thus use himself as a sales gimmick is hardly a crime against literature. But "The Art of the Deal" does deserve at least a warning label.

     In American alone, after 18 months of trumpery, the editors of Merriam-Webster are still playing catch-up. If new terms aren't being hatched, like narcissocracy or pluto-populism, then recent inventions (infoganda, feardom, Spinnish) are fast gaining traction.

     So American people are going to be called on. I think they'll repudiate Trumpery. That's why I think Trump has to be front and center. I'm not in agreement with the people who say, "No, never talk about Trump." He needs to be discussed. Trumpery, not Trump, Trumpery needs to be a part of every conversation. The 2024 election is going to be a referendum on both Trump and Trumpery, because if he's alive, he's running.

     Trumpery is like a virus in a zombie movie, infecting the unlikeliest think-tankers, politicians, and columnists. People you have down as solid Reaganites will suddenly, like the ravening monsters in those films, start telling you that tariffs are a terrific negotiating tool or that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is more dangerous than Russian President Vladimir Putin.
