"Mutalization"

This word does not exist. The fronto-temporally impaired, illiterate, malignantly narcissistic, deteriorating so-called President has “coined” the word. The press now accepts it as a real word.

From Wiki:

"Mutilization" is a non-word frequently used by President Donald Trump on his Truth Social platform in March 2026 to describe gender-affirming medical care for transgender children.

Context: Trump has used this term while advocating for the "SAVE America Act," a bill that includes provisions aimed at prohibiting gender-affirming care and restricting transgender athletes from women's sports.
Usage: Posts, such as one on March 17 and March 22, 2026, often stated, "No Transgender MUTILIZATION of our Children," according to reports.
Definition/Analysis: Analysts and critics consider "mutilization" a made-up word, likely a blend of "mutilation" and "brutalization" or "utilization," or a malapropism of "mutilation".
Reception: The term has been highlighted by critics as an error in language and a deliberate attempt to use inflammatory rhetoric regarding transgender issues.
