Trump's nickname.

I think you trying beat Trump at his own game is probably the most hilariously awesome plan you could have come up with.

Far be it from me to suggest anything other than you doing your best to out-Trump Donald Mother-*********** Trump.

Though I wouldn't mind if you explained a little more about your theory of insults having weight with voters.

Ahhh. I have no idea what actually works with voters. I can guess though however. I find it surprising that anyone voted for what was clearly a despicable dishonest person. How this turd even won a primary is beyond me. I listened to and read his speeches and was convinced he is really a very awful human being. Self centered, dishonest, sexist, racist and void of any personal integrity.

My theory about the nicknames is that it may have made some people see him as strong and dominant. The alpha dog in the pack. But swords are double edge. Tag him with an accurate nickname and another picture is created.

Just call him Trump but change the definition of Trump mean a horrible mess up,ie-"Gosh Bob you really Trumped it up now."

In somewhat obsolete British vernacular, the verb "to trump" refers to audible farting, and it does seem appropriate to re-popularize the use of that term.

But otherwise, I think we can leave the childish nicknames and the like to the people like Trump who get a kick out of it.

I use "The Trumpster". Has appeal to me because it feels like the type of nickname that comes out of the juvenile eighties and has a "frat boy" vibe ,like "the Mooch".
Further, it rhymes nicely with "dumpster" (something that fills with garbage, frequently stinks, and needs to be hauled off).

The Russia summit might rightly then be described as a "Trumpster Fire".

Edit to add, I have never been particularly fond of name-calling. Always looked at it as bad behavior that no one I could respect would engage in. Then 2016.

I like to stick "ster" on the end of a name. (I think it goes back to an old SNL skit where a guy keeps giving people nicknames over and over. "Hey, it's Sting. Stingster, The Sting-meister, Sting-a-reno...) I had a dog named "Pupster", and I call one of my best friends, "Hankster". So I kind of like that too. For Trump, it comes off as Insultingly affectionate.
 
I believe I also had my suggestions and preferences in the other thread ("Cheetoh Benito" wins for me). I usually go with The PDJT but I also like

the PAAPOTUS. (Person Acting As...)
 
Commander in chief?

Oh wait, in game of thrones she was called breaker of chains.

So, may I humbly suggest breaker of leftists?
MAGA!

Don't forget the wrestler Hulk Hogans' addresses to " all the little Hulksters out there ".

Rob Schneider. One amusing joke that was beaten to death, and somehow he STILL POPS UP ON NETFLIX.

That at least has the ring of an honest sentiment. Much better than Distracted1's strategy of "they're so stupid that if I can find just the right insult, they won't notice how angry I am or how much I hate them".

"....how much I hate them" ? You are reading a bit too much into the argument. I don't hate a stupid person for being stupid, any more than I hate a short person for being short.

Sorry, I think we've heard much better suggestions for our Russian traitor. Trumpski the Traitor or Putin's Poodle sound pretty good to me.
 
Trump is a kakistonomen: his own name, being a representation of him, is already worse than literally anything else you could call him. Reference a bloodthirsty dictator? All of them were smarter than he is. Call him by a bodily fluid? All of those serve useful purposes. Use adjectives to imply insanity, ridiculousness, or childishness? The mentally ill aren't responsible for their actions, ridiculous people can at least be amusing, and children grow up. Every insult you can dream of would be a step up for Trump. Just call him by his own name, it's already an insult.
