I believe I've mentioned in previous blogs that I am fond of 'nicknames.' Growing up in 1940's 1950's East St. Louis most everybody had a nickname-handle. There was Lumpy, Poochie, Pud, Stump,
Ping-Pong, Frog, Shimmy, Welder-Brain and yours truly, Moe. I have 15-grandchildren and I've given each a nickname. Some like their nickname and some don't.
Many of our sports' notables have had nicknames: There was 'The Babe,' The Splendid Splinter, The Man, Broadway Joe, Ducky, PeeWee, Scooter and The Big 'O.'
Throughout America's history many of our Presidents were given nicknames: Thomas 'Monticello Sage' Jefferson, Andrew 'Jackass' Jackson, (which became the Democrat Party's symbol), 'Honest' Abe Lincoln, 'Tricky Dick' Nixon and 'Slick Willie' Clinton.
It's time to settle on a nickname for the current White House occupant, Donald J. Trump. Here are just a few to consider:
Cheeto Chief, The Mad Creamsicle, Captain Choas, Cadet Bone Spurs, Orange Julius, Carrot Demon, Creep Throat, Dishonest Don and my favorite, Trumplethinskin.
Perhaps you have another favorite. And remember, we already have a Russian reference:
'Moscow Mitch.'

Give That Man a Name!
