Creative Epithets...

Back in 2009 radio show host Glenn Beck was universally excoriated for having opined that Barack Obama just might be a racist.

That followed, if you'll recall, the now (in)famous "beer summit," which resulted from Mr. Obama's lame - and quite likely racist - reference to white cops.

The "Establishment Media" circled the wagons around Obama and collectively deplored Beck's accusation as being "racist."  To think!  Having the temerity to actually call Obama a racist, makes one a racist!  They all agreed that calling the POTUS, any POTUS, a racist, or any other nasty name, is just not done.  It's outlawed.  It shall not be condoned.  A No No.  As in, Do. Not. Do. It! 

A lot seems to have happened between 2009 and 2019.  Now, whatever you think of Donald J. Trump, you have to agree he's like a Hoover vacuum cleaner for nasty epithets. The Media, various celebrities, almost all late night TV opinion spewers and oodles of Lefty politicians started out by calling Trump a crook.  And a liar.  A pedophile.  A thief.  A rapist.  A predator.  A serial abuser.  And, of course, that old "Progressive" fallback, "Hitler."  And let's not forget that forgettable comment made by one Rashida Tlaib, newfer Palestinian socialist Congressweenie from Michigan, who proclaimed:  "We're gonna impeach this mot*erf**ker!  And that was before he was even inaugurated! 

I wonder if she kisses her mommy with that mouth? 

They went on to label him a Russian collaborator.  And a spy.  A tool of a foreign government.  Even a traitor.  A traitor!  That last one will get your neck stretched if they can prove it (treason is a capitol offense!), which I gather the Lefties can't yet do.  But God knows, they're sure trying.  In short, there's literally not a slur that hasn't been hurled The Donald's way since he descended down the "Golden Escalator" that fateful day.

And since his election, his enemies have doubled and even tripled- and quadrupled down in their use of nasty names, reaching ever deeper into the well of nastiness to an extent never, ever before seen.

Never!

Now, being called a "liar" is pretty iffy stuff when we're talking about the President here.  There's a fairly well accepted rule that we do not insult, defame, impugn, disparage or otherwise condemn our POTUS out of respect for the Office.  And that's no matter who the POTUS is.  That's just good manners, doncha' know, and also indicative of proper decorum in such political matters.  And a good upbringing.  Folks on both sides of the aisle have generally observed this little nicety.  Thankfully.

But no longer.  It seems we're fresh out of decorum and manners.

Now, with Trump in the Oval Office, the gloves have come off.  We've all heard the usual epithets hurled The Donald's way.  They include misogynist, racist, Islamophobe, imbecile, moron, fool, etc., etc.  But in researching this matter I've come across some reeeeely creative epithets Trump's enemies have dreamed up for him.  In fact, a quick Google search will turn up more than a thousand of them.  And so I thought it might be a hoot to pick out a few for your reading pleasure...

So times have changed, my fellow Americans.  Unfortunately.  No longer must decorum reign in our Great Society.  Now, if things don't work out the way you'd like or if the wrong guy wins the Election, instead of just trying harder next time, just stamp your little feet and hurl accusations and insults and scream at the top of your lungs the most hateful, vile, disgusting and defamatory insults you can possible conjure up until he/she/it leaves office.  In shame.  Yeah, that oughta' do the trick! 

Don't worry.  One of these days a Democrat will be back in office and things will return to normal.  I hope.  They can wait 5 and 1/2 years, can't they?
