It occurs to me that the English language does not have a really adequate word

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

to describe or act as a synonym for Trump. Yes, there's "asshole," and "douchebag," and a few other choice appellations, but those are words that we also use to describe minor players like the obnoxious ex-boyfriend or the rude co-worker or the neighbor who mows his lawn at 7:00 on Saturday mornings. There are also a few delightfully descriptive phrases, like "tiny-fingered, Cheeto-faced, ferret-wearing shitgibbon." But there doesn't seem to be a singe word that adequately describes the uniquely monumental and bizarre awfulness of the current squatter in the White House.

There needs to be such a word. A special word. Maybe it's just "trump." Maybe future generations will reserve that word for the worst people in their lives. Maybe someday the gravest possible insult will be "You're a trump!"

4. I thought of that, but it doesn't quite roll trippingly off the tongue

like the Anglo-Saxon insults. It might work, though.

11. The family name "Mudd" was forever tainted by being connected to the

Lincoln assassination, so maybe that will happen to "Trump," too. Already the Trump business is trying to rebrand new offshoots as " Scion" because the Trump brand is now a major liability.

13. That's true. I remember when my parents were made at me they'd say something like,

"If you don't (clean up your room, put away your toys, etc.), your name will be mud around here." I just assumed they were referring to wet dirt and didn't realize until much later where the saying came from.

Maybe someday parents will tell their naughty children, "If you don't clean up your room your name will be Trump around here!"

12. "Quisling", "Benedict Arnold"

I think there are a few names or short phrases for someone with his loyalty and care for his country. But short phrases for someone so unsuited to the office he has occupied? Tricky. "Caligula", maybe?

[tblue37]

14. See my post #11 above. "Mudd" is another tainted family name,

which is where the saying "Your name is/will be Mudd" comes from.

15. First recorded in 1823, though

"A popular theory for this expression's origin derives it from Dr. Samuel Mudd, the physician who was convicted as conspirator after he set the broken ankle of President Lincoln's assassin, John Wilkes Booth. But the expression was first recorded in 1823, when mud was slang for a stupid person or fool, a usage dating from the early 1700s. Later the term mud simply alluded to discredit."

American Heritage Dictionary of Idioms

"1823 ‘J. Bee’ Slang 122 Mud, a stupid twaddling fellow. ‘And his name is mud!’ ejaculated upon the conclusion of a silly oration, or of a leader in the Courier."

Oxford English Dictionary

18. The Scots have some great insults - but few are one word

24 Times Scottish Twitter Roasted The Fuck Out Of Trump

Of course, this article has the best one: Scots Shower Trump With Glorious Scottish Insults After His Brexit Tweet - "you tiny fingered, Cheeto-faced, ferret wearing shitgibbon." And a one word insult - cockwomble!

I especially like "cocksplat" and "spunktrumpet."
