>>As far as NEW words - he did recently use a new one "surety" -- like when he said “Look at the way I’ve been treated lately, especially by the media. No politician in history — and I say this with great surety — has been treated worse or more unfairly.” So while he did actually use a new word, what he said while using it was ignorant. I suppose FJK who had his head shot, or Lincoln who was shot by an actor don't count? Or Harrison, Taylor, Garfield, McKinley, Harding, Roosevelt all of whom were shot. I'd say being shot counts as being treated worse than being criticized by the media because you're an incompetent idiot.

Yes, but you're selecting an unlikely grammatical interpretation to build a tower of insult. When complaining about his treatment, he ends off especially by the media. and then continues with a familiar theme. To establish your hit, you ignore the obvious and grammatically correct context (that he's talking about the closest object- the media,) instead pretending that he's comparing himself to politicians who were shot, so you can call him names based on this straw man position you invented. This is pretty transparent and increasingly disliked by people who aren't already determined to hate Donald Trump. Even Democrat politicians have started saying that their constituents don't care about Russia or the constant badgering, but they do care about jobs and quality of life in their street. Seems to me that anti-Donald rants and tantrums are yesterday's news, now the "Love Trumps Hate" brigade has moved on to hating Kushner and trying to destroy people like Hannity.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
