President Trump certainly has a penchant for using nicknames when speaking about his political opponents, foreign leaders and media personalities. Joe Biden is an obvious example and he has been labelled "1 Percent Biden", "Crazy Joe Biden", "Quid Pro Joe", "Sleepy Joe", "SleepyCreepy Joe", "Sleepy One" and "Very slow sleepy Joe" by the president. Trump has created nicknames for countless others as well, especially on Twitter.
