Pettifogger

Donald Trump loves to insult his foes ... calling them losers or maniacs or psychos or worse. But these single-word slights are very American ... as opposed to the English who, over the centuries, have developed rapier-like grandiloquent digs that send their adversaries quivering into the corner. As an homage to this British tradition, I herein offer some refined jibes that could be directed toward The Donald.

He is a:

Vainglorious varleto
Plutocratic pettifogger
Repetitious rapscallion
Bumptious bilious blowhard
Hirsute horse petute
Fatuous fliptwiddle
Braggadocios blatherskite
Flag-waving fruitloop
Cringe-worthy charlatan
Malicious montebank
Pandering pecksniffian

Marco or Rand or Jeb or Carly or Chris or Ted ... feel free to use any of these British brickbats without attribution whenever Trump tickles you.
