Donald Trump likes to dismiss his opponents with insulting nicknames…and I must admit that I used to do that too, in a way. Of course, I stopped when I was in about fifth grade.
Lately, he has called Democratic presidential contender Pete Buttigieg "Alfred E. Neuman." Alfred is, of course, the well-known cover boy on MAD magazine. My pal John Ficarra, who not so long ago was the editor of that publication, has something to say about the comparison.
