An acquaintance of mine lives in Thousand Oaks, and has worked in Federal Lands management for most of his career. After Trump's tweet about forest management California, my acquaintance posted a pretty epic rant online, describing Trump as the:

"Tangerine Colored Ballsack".

I generally dislike insults that focus much on appearance, but I thought that was a good one.

"Tangerine ballsack" is more concise, and loses absolutely nothing. A case where less is more.

Twenty years from now, "Trump" will be the nastiest name you could possibly call someone.

The Black Hole King?

A variant of the Sun King, which was Louis XIV. In Louis's case, all power radiated from him and he controlled everything. In Trump's case, He sucks in everything and nothing escapes without a lot of effort that could have been better used for something else.

Not too keen on it.

Something short and scans well and which if Trump hears it, will make him feel humiliated (and yes, with his fragile personality, he gets humiliated very easily).

"Fungus McPhallus" does this quite well

I 've been trying to think of a good nickname for him. So many come to mind. Pussy Grabber, Deceitful Don, Drumpf Trump, Lying Turd or alternatively Lying POS.

But I think after his submissive obsequious performance with Putin, I've been thinking Treasonous Trump or Traitor Trump.

Any ideas? I'll put them up for a vote later.

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.
The reason they voted for it was they had jealousy in their hearts and heads OR for the mid-west hatred of the real US on the coasts that provide money, art, creativity and entertainment and an economy.

Seems like that would be the Holy Grail of Trump nicknames.
Not really, enough republickers in the government would have to grow a pair to be able to get the necessary job done before the republickers become a very big Fail. Right now they fear it too much..

I've often been annoyed while having to listen to him talk. One of his most annoying habits is hissing. When a word ends in "s" he hisses it out for a long time. He seems to contrive to end sentences in words ending in "s" just so he can do that.

There are very many appropriate names/descriptions for it. All the naughty ones are certainly true. All the ones descrying the evil thing are too. Any others are pointless.

That is wishful thinking on steroids.

His strongest support is in Russia. They can't even vote here. They have to indoctrinate American suckers into voting for him. These suckers have been dubbed "Trumpkins".

Perhaps this strikes you as a sustainable situation. Me, not so much.

Bill Clinton, Obama and Trump appear before St. Peter at Heaven's Pearly Gates. St. Peter says "Pres. Clinton, you have sinned. I condemn you to your just reward." He opens a door and behind it is a huge venomous spider with gnashing fangs. Peter pushed Clinton in.

St. Peter says to Obama "Pres. Obama, you have sinned. I condemn you to your just reward." He opens the door and behind it is a snaked headed demon spitting venom. Peter pushes Obama in.

St. Peter turns to Trump, opens the door, pushes him in, and says "Mrs. Johnson, you have sinned and i condemn you to your just reward."

Just finished watching One Punch Man. In one episode there's a skyscraper owned by a rich **** that has what looks like a gilded poo emoji on the roof. In the show they call it "the Golden Turd".

"The Golden Turd". That fits Trump like tailored cellophane.
