synecdoche (sin EK doe key)

noun: a metaphor using part of something to represent the whole of something or vice versa

examples:

FACT: Donald Trump is a belligerent, puerile man-boy who doesn't know anything about anything; arrogantly thinks he can fake his way through everything; and spends his empty, appallingly entitled life sending meaningless, childish tweets, lying about his ongoing treason, ignoring his many wives and children, insulting and repulsing other countries to the point of diplomatic alienation, screaming FAKE NEWS! like an uncontrollably shitting toddler, and destroying America for his own financial gain.

SYNECDOCHE: The current White House is an international embarrassment.
