Is Spellcheck bias against Trump?

If I mistakenly type trump in the lower case I don't get a prompt to capitalize it like if I were to mistakenly type biden or harris.

trump is also a card game term among other definitions so spell check doesn't see it.

Because "trump" is a verb in its own right. It is not necessarily a proper noun unless specified.

Possibly, but given the number of times Trump's name is used in the course of a day I find it odd.

I can't even remember the last time I heard the word trump used in the card context.

Biden and Harris are just names. tRump can be a name (proper noun), a recualr noun, and a verb.

So no, spellcheck isn't "biased against tRump".

Spellcheck isn't based on most often used. kamala isn't spell checked because it's an Asian and Australian tree

Biden and Harris are just names. tRump [sic] can be a name (proper noun), a recualr [sic] noun, and a verb.

So no, spellcheck isn't "biased against tRump" [sic].

"Recualr"?
