"Dr Nazari said the new insect, which is a type of twirler moth, bore an uncanny resemblance to Mr Trump because of the yellowish-white scales on its head. The scientists said the tuft reminded him of the incoming president's hairstyle."

"The good news is President-elect Trump is already remembered in other ways. A new moth species was generously named after the reality TV star for two of the best reasons."
"Aside from possessing Trump’s signature hairstyle, the moth is also said to have a tiny penis."
"Don’t believe me? It’s true! The Neopalpa donaldtrumpi’s “genitalia” is “comparatively smaller” to other moth species. So, why exactly was this new moth species even named after Trump in the first place? Apparently, it had nothing to do with its penis size."
"An informative research article regarding the species states,The new species is named in honor of Donald J. Trump, to be installed as the 45th President of the United States on January 20, 2017. The reason for this choice of name is to bring wider public attention to the need to continue protecting fragile habitats in the US that still contain many undescribed species.Ah! So, in addition to covering the luxury building facades of the Upper West Side, Trump’s name is also being used to raise awareness for the protection of our many “fragile habitats” (other than the United States).
"Sorry, Trump haters, but this moth’s namesake has nothing to do with the president-elect’s private parts…"
But we all know it is not the size of the penis that matters . . . right Tweey?
