Can't really go wrong with either.

From "Crooked Hillary" to "Cryin' Chuck Schumer," President Donald Trump has shown that he's not above employing childish nicknames to taunt his political enemies, but now he's getting a taste of his own medicine.

Stormy Daniels' lawyer and possible presidential candidate Michael Avenatti took to Twitter to poll his followers as to which nickname he should use for the President.


Mr. Avenatti emerged as a key player against Trump earlier this year when he filed a suit in order to get adult film star Stephanie Clifford (better known as Stormy Daniels) out of a non-disclosure agreement brokered by Michael Cohen to conceal her consensual 2006 affair with Donald Trump.

Since then, Avenatti has been a regular guest on cable news shows, frequently antagonizing Trump and Michael Cohen, and even releasing private bank records revealing large deposits made to the account used to pay Daniels.

Avenatti has been such a thorn in the side of the Trump administration that this tweet seems comparatively mild. That didn't stop his followers from having some fun.

So far, "Don the Con" maintains a strong lead, but after 2016 everyone's prepared for an upset.

However, some didn't like the two-name system and felt inclined to go with a write-in vote.

That's when things got creative.

Avenatti didn't just stop at nicknames either. He spent the day railing Trump when the White House requested an extension on the deadline to reunite the migrant children with their parents.

Avenatti took to using the #FightClub hashtag in a series of tweets in which he didn't dismiss the possibility of running for president himself, saying only someone who's a street fighter would have a chance at beating the president in a reelection.

Only time will tell if the nicknames will stick, but with Avenatti and Mueller exhaustively working against the president, a petty nickname should be the last thing Trump is worried about. Sadly, it probably isn't.

Comedian-turned-MAGA bro podcaster Andrew Schulz has gone viral after sharing during a conversation on The Brilliant Idiots with Charlamagne Tha God that ongoing ICE raids were his "breaking point" with President Donald Trump and that liberals were right about the threat Trump poses to democracy in the U.S.

Schulz previously played a significant role platforming Trump, who appeared as a guest on the Flagrant podcast in October 2024 during his presidential campaign, an episode that racked up 9.6 million views and sparked backlash against Schulz, who was branded by some as “a right-wing MAGA lunatic.”

Melania Ripped After Using Event With Freed Israeli Hostages To Promote Her New Documentary

First Lady Melania Trump was criticized after she used an event at the White House with freed Israeli hostages to promote her new documentary Melania, which follows her in the 20 days leading up to President Donald Trump’s second inauguration following the 2024 presidential election.

Amazon MGM paid $40 million for the distribution rights and reportedly poured another $35 million into marketing. The film beat box office predictions to earn more than $7 million over the weekend but will need to generate much more box office to break even.

When a person becomes a parent, much more will change in their life than they anticipated.

But that transition can be especially hard when a person feels like they're losing themselves to their role as a mom or dad—and that feeling is made even worse when their partner hyper-fixates on their new role.
