Do Americans routinely use the word "BEAUT"? Just sounds a bit Crocodile Dundee.
The Australians use it, or maybe "did." We in UK don't.
Also does he routinely use ampersand? For most people it is quicker and easier to type the word "and" in full rather than look for the "&" key and press shift.
Ampersands are great because they add subtle visual interest. They are particularly good, imo, for cases where you want to tie a thing together a little tighter. e.g. "Center for Intelligence & Foreign Affairs" more clearly conveys that it's one agency with two roles whereas "Center for Intelligence and Foreign Affairs" is slightly more ambiguous between one agency with two roles versus two agencies ("Center for Intelligence" and also "Foreign Affairs")
The use of ampersands in this Trump post is very odd, though. Very strange.

Yes and it's also used in the popular Christmas Vacation movie "she's a beaut, Clark"
Regarding "BEAUT", notice that the "Y" is missing. A number of Q drops had Y, "Y" or [Y] in them.
Nice catch.
