CNN Jake Tapper: Trump Lost His Nickname Mojo
CNN host Jake Tapper was on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and joked that President Donald Trump has "lost his mojo" regarding his penchant for doling out nicknames to people he does not like or those with whom he disagrees.

"I'll be honest, President Trump has a lot of skills, and I used to think his branding skill was amazing. 'Little Marco' or 'Lyin' Ted,' 'Low Energy Jeb,' 'Crooked Hillary.' He's kind of lost his mojo on the nickname front," Tapper said.

"He tried to do it with Comey and he's been trying out all these different nicknames. He had 'Lyin' Comey' and that didn't seem to work. 'Liar and Leaker Comey,' 'Slippery Comey,' 'Slime Ball,' first two different words, then 'Slimeball' one word. He's clearly trying new material, as one does, and it hasn't really caught on. I don't know if he's just so ensconced in the White House he's lost his ability to do it."

"He has not come up with a good nickname for me yet," Tapper said of Trump. "Flunky, I think he called me a Flunky once. It was disappointing. Come on. Show up."

Trump regularly bashes CNN for what he says is reporting fake news. He included the network four times on his "2017 Fake News Awards" list that was published in January.
