The term 'Dotard' entered the modern lexicon with a bang in September 2017 when North Korean leader Kim Jong Un used it to describe U.S. President Donald Trump in a formal statement. While the word itself dates back to the 14th century, meaning a person in their 'dotage' or senility, its sudden resurgence sparked a global search frenzy and a wave of internet memes. Social media users quickly embraced the archaic insult, using it to satirize political tensions and the war of words between world leaders. Today, the Dotard meme serves as a reminder of one of the more surreal moments in international diplomacy, often used to point out perceived incompetence or elderly confusion in various contexts.
