Trump's nickname.

If you are trying to come up with Forever Name for Trump good luck.

If 'Literally Hitler' didn't work to keep him out of office, probably nothing else will stick.

If you started the 2016 campaign with something more reasonable, like 'Shady Donald', or 'Mafia Don' it might have stuck. But when you go full Hitler at the beginning, and he doesn't come across has Hitler, you've lost all naming credibility.

How does your theory pan out with all the other candidates who were compared to hitler?

The thread is mildly amusing at times, maybe even with an occasional flash of creativity.

But I fear that before long it will all be moot.

At the rate he is going, Trump's own name will soon be among the worst insults anyone could use to describe a politician.

I like "The Hair". It's simple, elegant. He's clearly sensitive about it so it's hurtful and hair not being sentient on it's own, dehumanizing.

Maybe the hair is sentient and it's the rest that's not.

That's a hard one to pull off but with the right production values and images sure, why not? Some images of Trump supporters raising Nazi salutes dissolving to Charlottesville marchers and the concentration camps for children, I could see it working.
 
A lot of creativity here. :)

My personal favourite was TrumpleThinSkin the Toddler in Chief.

But some of the others here are definitely worth a chuckle.

Adding a bit of history, and adding a bit more sting to one that has been mentioned, shouldn't it be Ubergropenfuhrer?

ObergruppenführerWP

No one's looking for worse than.... is the only path to having one's name becomes a euphemism for a trait, tendency or behavior via starting a World War and creating mass genocide?

We have numerous openings but Hitler, Quisling, Mata Hari, Nero,...? Well, they're all taken. And I think that's the point. Trump may well become synonymous with his own brand of insanity, incompetence, evil, whatever. Right now, there's just so much wrong with the guy that calling anyone else a "Trump" risks thirty minutes of cross-examination as to just what particular despicable trait they're picking up on. You calling me an amoral and immoral incompetent boob, publicity whore, actual whore, liar, tax evader, bigot, misogynist, moron?

I don't suppose anyone would be worse than Hitler, but "at least he's not Hitler" is pretty cold comfort. In any case, the post to which you would appear to be responding suggested Trump's name would be among the worst things you could apply to a politician, and that could easily be true without Hitler ever coming into it.
