C.H.U.D.
1984 · Film · 96 min
Directed by Douglas Cheek
A rash of bizarre murders in New York City seems to point to a group of grotesquely deformed vagrants living in the sewers. A courageous policeman, a photojournalist and his girlfriend, and a nutty bum, who seems to know a lot about the creatures, band together to try and determine what the creatures are and how to stop them.

Interesting, that is what urban dictionary listed (C.H.U.D. definition). From that movie reference it still just seems like a general insult to appearance / culture (basement dweller). Unless there is more to how Chapo Trap House used it..
Chud came from the movie (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.H.U.D. ), it entered the political "discourse" through the Chapo Trap House and became a generic word liberals use for conservatives/trump supporters
