When President Donald Trump introduced Mark Esper as the new secretary of defense on Thursday, he invented a new word in his speech – “Infantroopen.”
The word came while Trump was explaining Esper’s combat infantry badge he was awarded while serving with the famed 101 Airborne in Iraq. He also called members of Congress “lawmarkers.
This new work reminds many of Trump’s other infamous new word that appeared in a May 2017 tweet – “covfefe.”
