A mediocre president elected in 1980 who is very over-rated, but is worshipped by many modern neocons
President Reagan shifted the tax burden from the wealthy to the middle class, while dramatically increasing spending mostly for the military. At the same time he was busting unions and driving down wages for working class Americans. This of course created massive deficits. Reagan supported Saddam Hussein during the war between Iraq and Iran and supplied him with weapons including poison gas he used on the Kurds. Reagan should also be remembered for the Iran-Contra scandal.

A nickname given to a president (or any other senior authority figure) who is clearly incompetent and completely ill-suited to his position of power but still manages to maintain at least some form of likability factor.
This expression became popular during the early years of the George W. Bush administration.

A ruler who, though having a great deal of power to interpret all laws and decisions of a given government, is a benevolent leader chosen by the people to lead his or her country to glory in accordance with the "general will" of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's philosophy.

The Trumpster has been called the Klingon President due to his increasingly apparent authoritarianism, prideful ruthlessness, appetite for paid sex, mood swings, lack of empathy and clear attempts to create a barbaric caste system fueled by dreams of a racially divided social hierarchy paralleling dictatorships that appear to thrive while relying on slave labor!
