Trump Algebra

Equations that are derived from Donald J. Trump’s irrational or unethical logic, which generally defy conventional algebra rules. For example, based on the twice-impeached president’s collusion and insurrection, we could formulate the following counterintuitive relationships:
Republicans: “Two impeachment wrongs don’t make a right”—when (–) × (–) = (–).
Democrats: “Two impeachment rights do make a wrong”—when (+) × (+) = (–).

Trump algebra falls under what we call “negative math,” when it’s not axiomatically incorrect for the product of two positives to be a negative, or for the product of two negatives to be still a negative.
