By March 8 , ten days after the episode 's broadcast , the donaldjdrumpf.com website had sold over 35,000 " Make Donald Drumpf Again " hats , comprising all of the inventory on hand . The Chrome extension had also been downloaded 433,000 times . ( In November , shortly after Trump 's election , Drumpf-cap manufacturer Unionwear filed for bankruptcy , though this had nothing to do directly with the manufacturing of these specific hats . ) Freelance journalist S. I. Rosenbaum , writing for the '' Washington Post '' , criticized Oliver 's " Donald Drumpf " appellation as derisive of German Americans and other immigrant groups who anglicized their names upon immigration . Rosenbaum wrote that the phrase was reminiscent of Trump 's own xenophobic statements in that it was part of a long-running trend of " bestowing foreign-sounding names to imply that the target is n't really an American . " Oliver later said that the joke " got out of hand " and never used it on the show again . In an interview with '' Rolling Stone '' magazine , he said , " That joke became old for us very quickly . There 's a reason we did n't use it again . It really is the song I skip past . It 's ' Creep . ' It 's a good song , Thom Yorke ! It was a good song when he wrote it . " Alluding to the fact that the segment aired on the same night as the Oscars , the comedian also stated , " We were not doing the episode with the sense that it would become bigger than our show normally is " , but the " Drumpf " appellation 's later popularity " kind of slightly ruins the memory "
