President Biden’s reelection campaign has dubbed former President Trump “Broke Don,” taking a strategy out of Trump’s playbook that his political rivals know all too well.
Trump has used nicknames — from “Little Marco” to “Crooked Hillary” to “Lyin’ Ted” — to put down a variety of opponents. For much of 2020, Biden’s moniker, courtesy of Trump, was “Sleepy Joe.”
Now, the Biden team is seeking to turn the tables in attempting to make one stick to Trump while it worked this week to highlight the former president’s lagging fundraising numbers in the 2024 race.
Ugh. If you’re going to go low, workshop the name-calling. Go with alliteration or rhyming. And nothing too fancy, like Destitute Don.
At least make it flow a bit, like Broke Donny.
Or go sing-songy, like: Donny Chapter 11, Don-o Busto, or Donny The Cheat.
But if you really want to get under his skin, you can’t go wrong with: Dirt-Poor Donny.
Repeat 1000 times.
It’s gotta be deadbeat don
You can’t use big words here. The right that are smart enough to know the word destitute, know why they’re voting republican. Broke Donny would be my choice though. I already call him Donny or orange Jesus, to aggravate my parents when they start to talk about all the good he’s doing now. It’s Easter Sunday next week, I look forward to testing each variation.
I like it. Sounds like “broke down”.
And let The Lonely Island make a song. Something like Shy Ronny.
Donny Broke - A donnybrook comes from Irish meaning a public quarrel or dispute.
