Use the p then

  • trump - A suit in card games that outranks all other suits for the duration of a hand.

  • pi - A transcendental number, approximately 3.14159, represented by the symbol π, that expresses the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of a circle and appears as a constant in many mathematical expressions

  • is - The third person singular of the substantive verb be, in the indicative mood, present tense

  • sap - The watery fluid that circulates through a plant, carrying food and other substances to the various tissues

  • Rapist - One who commits the crime of rape (e.g. Donald Trump)


Edit - even with the c

  • Sac - A pouch or pouchlike structure in an organism, sometimes filled with fluid.

A person who believes a particular race is superior to others (e.g. Donald Trump)

For a person to be in the position depicted the word would have had to be "sa" which I don't believe is a word. But you can play words that aren't words in Scrabble as long as no one challenges you. But it's also an incredibly bad choice of a word, setting up an opponent for a triple like that.

"_M" is the only one that's bad as far as I can tell.

"AS" bottom-up is probably fine? I don't know the rules. The words it could turn into by adding "racist" or "rapist" would be valid words, "sac" and "sap".

_M has a tile above it, meaning this can be anything. There are plenty of words that end in _m.

Scam, scum, slum, plum, trim, tram,

The only bad one is SA

But it's not SA it's SAC or SAP.

Not currently. The implication is that the person is in the middle of their turn, and needs to choose between the two letters, but that means that SA was already played in a previous turn, and while I'm unsure if SA is a proper two letter word in any language, I am sure SA isn't a proper two letter word in English because my family had the list of two and three letter words in the official Scrabble dictionary, and SA isn't on the list. Sh, si, so, and st, are.
