"Popular Vote Loser Donald Trump"

"Shitgibbon", "Cheeto Jesus", "Don the Con", "Drumph". Even just plain old "Asshole" — all are appealing and appropriate. And they certain do suit him, no question there. But can't we all come together, consider message and branding, and agree upon one concise description that reminds the right wing of exactly what they bought and paid for?

I think I found the perfect description someone came up with over on a DailyKos post, and I say we all adopt it every time we post. It's simple, eloquent, will eat eat them up inside every time they hear it (Trump himself most of all!), and most importantly in a post-truth world, it's entirely honest and factual.

Works nicely, doesn't it? It's got my vote for "official Trump tag line".

It's like saying "Repukes." I don't do that either. This is serious business and nicknames just sound ridiculous to me.

(I mean, I'm not saying some of them don't tickle my funny bone... )

I think the name you suggest is really the best one. With a GOP House, Senate, and White House, it'd be easy to forget that they do NOT have a mandate. I like your suggestion not because it's taunting but because it's important to keep in mind.

Go after Trump all the time. He went after Obama all the time. Keep that thin skinned asshole so stirred up, he won't be able to find the toilet paper.

Lets always keep a thread alive with that topic.

I like to say Trump and Republicans straight out because I want to make 100% sure that when they f**k up they can own it all right down to their miserable name or title.
