It seems like there is a staffer in charge of EVERYTHING when it comes to assisting the highest and most powerful job in the World. The President of the United States of America clearly does not lack help when it comes to most of his duties as the leader of the free world. So this reporter did a lot of digging to find out who was either \u201cin charge of,\u201d or an \u201cassistant to,\u201d when it comes to the racist nicknames of domestic and foreign leaders donned by the Donald, himself. And I found him.<\/p>\n

Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to Grant Lee Jackson; First Nickname Suggestionist to the former POTUS, Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

I asked Jackson why \u201cracist\u201d nicknames were such a common theme? Jackson told me that he has never once recommended any nickname be a racist one.<\/p>\n

I asked him, \u201cWhat about \u2018Animal Assad,\u2019 which was used for the President of Syria, Bashar al-Assad?\u201d To which he told me, \u201cI recommended \u2018Bash Ass.\u2019 But President Trump said that Syria was a country filled with animals. Hence, \u2018Animal Assad.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

I asked about \u201cPocahontas\u201d for Elizabeth Warren who was a 2020 Democratic Presidential Candidate. Jackson told me that he recommended \u201cLiz War-On Trump\u201d because she waged \u201cWar On Trump\u201d at every opportunity. But the former POTUS liked \u2018Pocahontas\u2019 because although Warren was not part of the Cherokee Tribal Nation, she did have Cherokee in her ancestry.<\/p>\n

I finally asked about; \u201cEvita\u201d and \u201cEva Per\u00f3n\u201d for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez<\/a>, US Representative from New York, \u201cCoco Chow\u201d for Elaine Chao, 24th Secretary of Labor and 18th Secretary of Transportation, and now \u201cMeatball Ron\u201d for (Italian descendant) Ron DeSantis, 46th Governor of Florida. To which Jackson replied, \u201cI\u2026 I\u2026 I got nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n

With some additional persuading and $129 (for which I hope MPL will reimburse me), Jackson gave me a list of additional racist nicknames that never made the cut (thank God):<\/p>\n

Michael \u201cShecky Greene\u201d Bloomberg – 108th Mayor of New York City<\/p>\n
