Donald Trump seems to be losing steam on coming up with derisive nicknames for his competitors. While he started out strong with "Low-energy Jeb," "Crooked Hillary," "Lyin' Ted," and "Little Marco," his new nicknames for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) leave something to be desired. His picks: "Crazy Bernie" and "Goofy Elizabeth Warren."
Even Warren couldn't help but say something when she heard what a lackluster nickname Trump had chosen for her. "Really? That's the best you could come up with? Come on," Warren said. "I thought Donald Trump said he was a guy that was good with words."
