In Google searches, that is. During Sunday night’s episode of Last Week Tonight, John Oliver went hard after Trump, pointing out that the Trump name—emblazoned across so many of his properties—wasn’t always Trump.
In fact, when his family immigrated to the U.S., they did so with the name Drumpf. That is far more befitting of Donald’s circus act of a campaign, a point that Oliver hammered home by urging his audience to use the hashtag #MakeDonaldDrumpfAgain on Twitter.
The call to action worked, to the horror of Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz. Donald Drumpf immediately became the second-most searched for candidate in the Republican primary race, and even spent a few moments ahead of Donald Trump:
