Americans have traditionally elected their president and vice presidents based largely on their record. When a distinct appellation or nickname was engaged, it was often created by the candidates themselves.

Nicknames have been adopted by presidents based on their platforms, some famous speech, or some specific trait that they wanted to be known for.

Nicknames that they earned from others were often negative, demeaning, and in a few cases, they were disgraceful. Some were purely ad hominem and quite personal. Obvious examples would be: Richard Nixon (Tricky Dick), Bill Clinton (Slick Willie), and Joe Biden (Crooked Joe).

Nicknames have been chosen for accomplishments, failures, and sometimes simply physical appearance. Chester Arthur was known as "Walrus." Grover Cleveland was "Uncle Jumbo."

Kamala Harris – The Search Is On

Without a single vote yet cast for her nomination, Harris is being labeled several interesting nicknames—most have to do with her outward traits. Donald Trump called her "Laffin Kamala" for a while, but then he switched to "Lying Kamala" because she is now the inheritor of the great swirling dark cloud of Biden lies that is now so well known.

The seemingly most oft used are "Giggles,” and the latest is "Chuckles,” probably adopted from the famous "Chuckles the Clown."

To be completely fair, she clearly earned this nickname.

Four questions beg to be answered concerning Kamala’s laughing episodes, or should we call them "fits"?

1. Why does she laugh so often? Is it a personality trait or something akin to mental illness?

2. What is she laughing at? Check it for yourself. The subject of her laughter is never something even remotely funny.

3. Check this also while you’re at it: almost no one is laughing with her—no one!

4. Do you think that this creepy cackling cacophony will be leveled at the entire country if we should actually make her the next president?

In his speech at the RNC Convention, Tucker Carlson said, "Anyone can become president, but only a brave person can be called a leader."

Is she bravely laughing in the face of danger, or is she laughing at the danger we are ignoring by giving her the idea that she embodies the heroic new war cry needed by the media and the nation?

The Search Is Over

Finally, does Kamala think it’s funny that we hang on every word she says because no one in the world knows about Willie Brown.

Recently, Greg Gutfeld said that we should stop believing that the race is about Republican versus Democrat. He said it is now clearly about the line between fantasy and reality.

Donald Trump deals only with the realities of life in America. Kamala Harris is the star of a fantasy show where unicorns, giggles, and outright cackling are all you get.
