Trivia Code Name 7-28-16

Bologna

Well, I managed to find a source that says Bologna and Bolivia were both used as code words for the president, so that leaves six other choices. My odds of getting the correct one have improved from 12.5% to 16.7%.

I'll guess that the correct answer is "Ingrate."

"Chile" was not used.

Just to state that I finally found the info on the code names, so I can confirm my original answer. http://www.c3teachers.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Anatomy-of-a-Cipher.pdf

Chile is incorrect.

The eight included: "Bologna," "Bolivia," "Ida," "ink," "Irving," "ingress," "ingrate," and "ingot."
