title: Tronald Dump Quotes Authors Tags API
description: Tronald Dump is an open community REST API exposing a historical archive of Donald Trump quotes with sources, authors, tags, and a search interface. Responses follow HAL (Hypertext Application Language) JSON conventions with `_links` and `_embedded` sections for hypermedia navigation. The API supports random quote retrieval, quote lookup by ID, full text search with pagination, tag browsing, author lookup, and source lookup. No authentication is required. The original public service ran at api.tronalddump.io and has gone offline since 2023; this spec is preserved for community SDKs, archival mirrors, and historical reconstruction.
