The funniest thing I've read today! 😂
"WORM-LIKE AMPHIBIAN NAMED AFTER DONALD TRUMP"
As an IT Professional, I particularly appreciate choosing to naming a worm after him (poor worm though!). In my field, here is the classic definition of a computer worm*:
Worms (unlike viruses) self-replicate and propagate. Once a worm has made its way onto a system, usually via an internet or network connection, it makes multiple copies of itself and spreads via the internet infecting any inadequately-protected systems on the network. Because each subsequent copy of a worm can also self-replicate, infections spread very rapidly via the internet and other systems.
EXCERPT FROM THE ARTICLE:
As I'm fond of saying, "The greatest, most powerful, and smartest computer is the one between our ears! Be sure to upgrade it, protect it, optimize it and use it!" 😊
------ * Computers are infected by various nefarious methods, including: worms, virus, malware. Hence the importance to keeping computers protected with updates, rigorous security measures and by using best practices.

EXCERPT FROM THE ARTICLE:
D. donaldtrumpi is a type of caecilian—a group of limbless amphibians resembling serpents or worms. The group was named after the Latin word “caecus” which means “blind”.
EnviroBuild co-founder Aidan Bell shared the inspiration for the name:
“As Demorphus donaldtrumpi is an amphibian, it is particularly susceptible to the impacts of climate change and is therefore in danger of becoming extinct as a direct result of its namesake's climate policies.
“Capable of seeing the world only in black and white, Donald Trump has claimed that climate change is a hoax by the Chinese.
“Burrowing [his] head underground helps Donald Trump when avoiding scientific consensus on anthropogenic climate change."
