A feeling of offense or resentment; anger:
We left in high dudgeon.

@realDonaldTrump he does not fume
Not always like Ivanka's perfume
He does bludgeon
Over a dudgeon
Hits his point like a sonic boom.

I do enjoy it when Trump lambasts someone on twitter, but when I looked today there hasn't been anything since he defended his Sweden comments. When he tweets it is heard around the world in a flash. Love his take no prisoners style. Refreshing after Bush took it all daily. I did take poetic liberty using dudgeon....Trump really doesn't seem to be thinskinned, he just intends to win.

Maybe I am becoming a curmudgeon
Because sometimes I’d like to bludgeon
More than a few
Who spread fake news
And take Trump with such high dudgeon

The Left is in high dudgeon over the ‘rollback’ of so-called ‘transgender’ rights to use the restroom of their choice, while in Iran they would be hung from the nearest tree.....................

“The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA), offers a common language and standard criteria for the classification of mental disorders.”

“The DSM lists Dudgeon as a mental disorder affecting primarily Democrats, liberals and progressives. Unfortunately, there is no cure.”
