A newly-formed politically group seeks to turn top GOP 2016 candidate Donald Trump’s famous phrase against him.

A Cleveland-based political action committee branding itself the Let’s Fire TRUMP PAC registered with the Federal Election Commission this week, the Northeast Ohio Media Group reported.

Since outside PACs aren’t allowed to use candidates’ names in their titles, “TRUMP” actually stands for Terrible Radicals Undermining Middle Class People, The Hill noted.

According to the Northeast Ohio Media Group, the Let’s Fire TRUMP PAC was registered by Jennifer Scofield, an aide to local Cuyahoga County politician Ed FitzGerald. Scofield did not return the outlet’s requests for comment on the PAC’s plans.
