"Shambling lard muffin." I like it. Trump's derogatory nicknames are so juvenile: "crooked," "shifty," "sleepy" - sounds like the Seven Dwarves of his dreams. Whereas the derogatory names bestowed on him by the blogetaria are genius: "vulgar talking yam," "fascist loofa-faced shitgibbon," "Tiny-Fingered, Cheeto-Faced, Ferret-Wearing Shitgibbon" (thank you, Scotland), "President Duamp-nuts", and now this.

Speaking as another native New Yorker, Trump is making us all look bad with his unoriginal slurs. Although no one can compete with the lyrical inventiveness of the Scots, we NYers usually know just where to stick the knife in when it comes to derogatory nicknames.

Don't forget the original and still the best: "short-fingered vulgarian."
