I did this on Firefox, but I suspect it may work in other browers too.

Install the Violentmonkey extension. Tampermonkey or Greasemonkey will also do.
Install the Lemmy tools script.
Browse to Lemmy
Click on the screw driver icon on the LemmyTools bar that is now visible on the Lemmy page.
Scroll down and check the box next to "Content Blocking"
Add your block words in the "Add filters seperated by commas." box. I typed "Trump, Vance" Voila!

While we're at it, any recommendations for a Lemmy Android client that can do the same?

Jerboa doesn't appear to have anything other than blocking by: site, community or user.

Boost can do that. Just go to settings and search for block it will show you an option to block words

Does it work for you on Boost? I've blocked some communities and keywords with Boost, but sometimes they still do show up for me in New

For me it does work, but I am only scrolling in all never in new
