While Iran has again locked down the Strait of Hormuz following Israel's renewed attacks on Lebanon, President Donald Trump is spending his Saturday playing with polls.
In one poll, Trump asked his MAGA supporters if they prefer to name "Dumocrat" or "Dumbocrat" and explained that the word "dumb" is spelled with a B.
"POLL: Which do you prefer, Dumocrat or Dumbocrat?" Trump posted on Truth Social. "In one case, you simply exchange the 'e' for 'u,' so simple and precise (Many people don’t know, or assume, that DUMB ends in 'b'). In the other case, you spell out DUMB, but it seems to lose some of the identity to Democrats when done this way. Which is better?"

In a second poll, Trump asked his supporters if the name of Immigration and Customs Enforcement should be renamed to National Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or NICE, as a way to troll liberals.
"POLL: ICE has been abused by the Fake News Media at levels never seen before," he posted in part.
Trump blamed a dislike of ICE agents on "Dumocrats" and suggested it be changed to NICE.
"The concept I have had for quite some time — A strong feeling that the name of these Patriots, 'ICE,' should be changed to, 'NICE,' in that it will totally discombobulate Crooked, Dishonest, and Unpatriotic Reporters and Journalists. For them to say, 'We went to a NICE Facility today,' as opposed to 'ICE' or, 'NICE Agents have deported a Violent Drug Dealer,' they won’t be able to handle it, they will go totally crazy!"
