It got so tedious typing the name Bush back in the day, most of the time we just went with *, or shrub. For Trump my vote for a suitable nickname goes to - tiny fingers.

The attack reportedly so wounded Trump that he still occasionally sends Carter, now editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair, pictures of his hands to prove his fingers are normal-sized.
"To this day, I receive the occasional envelope from Trump," Carter recently wrote in Vanity Fair. "There is always a photo of himgenerally a tear sheet from a magazine. On all of them he has circled his hand in gold Sharpie in a valiant effort to highlight the length of his fingers. I almost feel sorry for the poor fellow because, to me, the fingers still look abnormally stubby. The most recent offering arrived earlier this year, before his decision to go after the Republican presidential nomination. Like the other packages, this one included a circled hand and the words, also written in gold Sharpie: See, not so short! I sent the picture back by return mail with a note attached, saying, Actually, quite short. Which I can only assume gave him fits."
During an appearance on CNN Friday, this writer suggested Rubio attack Trump over his allegedly stubby fingers if he really wants to get under the Republican frontrunners skin.
