And yet...let’s not be overhasty in our judgment here. Because, after all, Trump, in addition to being stupid and authoritarian, is also dishonest, vulgar, misogynistic, and bigoted.
He has so many unpresidential qualities that it’s surprising nobody has come up with a Trump nickname that’s caught on with the public. It may be that anti-Trumpers consider it childish and undignified to slap a nickname on a rival. I know that’s the way I feel. But what if I weren’t constrained by my sense of decorum – could I come up with an appropriate nickname? Of course I could. Just to prove it, I will offer here a partial list of the nicknames that I could hurl at Trump were I not an individual of stupendous dignity:
Donny
Dimwit

Dumbass
Donny
the Dictator

Der Fuhrer

And
so on. But these are all nicknames that I decline to bestow. Because, you know,
dignity and decorum.
