Several of the current president’s younger staff and other Democrats close to Biden are reported to use the nickname ‘Hitler Pig’ for Trump, in reference to the head of the Third Reich.
An employee referenced the nickname when journalist Maggie Haberman accused Trump of sleeping during his trial in New York City on Monday.
“Hitler Pig is sleepy” was what one person allegedly captioned the New York Times reporter’s comments to CNN on Monday.

Several advisers to President Joe Biden have an unpleasant name for their boss’s opponent in the November election, former President Donald Trump. He is pictured in court on April 16.
They are not believed to be senior officials and the nickname has not reached President Biden’s lips.
The nickname ‘Hitler Pig’ initially arose when the former president invited Nick Fuentes, a white nationalist and avowed anti-Semite, to dinner at Mar-a-Lago with Kanye West.
Every time Trump makes headlines, younger employees reportedly text each other: “Hey, did you see what Hitler Pig said?”
“Joe Biden talks a lot about decency, but he and his staff don’t have a decent bone in their bodies,” Brian Hughes, a senior Trump campaign adviser, said in a statement.
“These ridiculous and rude comments reflect the failure and dishonesty of the entire Biden operation.”
Haberman, a New York Times reporter, told CNN that Trump had difficulty staying awake and eventually fell asleep as jury selection began in his hush money trial in New York.
“Trump appears to be sleeping,” Haberman tweeted from the room.
“His head keeps falling and his mouth goes slack.”

Biden’s campaign team issued a statement purportedly about poll ratings titled “Wake Up Donald: After Stormy Abortion Ban Coverage, Trump’s Poll Memo Attempts to Silence Panic.”
There was even less moderation on social media, where hashtags such as ‘DonSnoreleone’, ‘The Nodfather’ and ‘Sleepy Don’ quickly went viral.
The anti-Trump Republican Lincoln Project joked that “#SleepyDon stayed up late posting rage on Truth Social.”
“He’s not going to change his sleeping patterns and he can’t drink 10 Diet Cokes in the courtroom,” joked comedian Dana Goldberg. ‘He’s going to fall asleep every. single. Day.’
“To me, that’s what I want to say, it’s crazy,” Rachel Maddow told viewers on MSNBC.
“It’s also a reminder of how scary, as scary and grim and important as it is, it’s a reminder that we’re dealing with someone who is fundamentally a buffoon.”
But the former president’s campaign team dismissed it as “100 percent fake news,” insisting he was the victim of a malicious media.
“This is 100% fake news coming from ‘journalists’ who were not even in the courtroom,” they said in a statement.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump appears before the New York State Supreme Court on Monday morning.
New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman repeated the furiously disputed claim on CNN.
But others posted images of the many times the sitting president appears to have fallen asleep in public places.
The former president appeared with slightly pink eyes in photos taken in court, but most reporters stated that Trump remained focused throughout.
‘Donald Trump sat with his face impassive, his eyes half-lidded and his lips pursed as his lawyers battled with prosecutors over how many salacious (and false) National Enquirer headlines could be shown to jurors and whether they could hear him say ‘grab them by the penis’ ‘. ***s’ or if they could only read transcripts of the famous Access Hollywood tape,’ Rob Crilly of DailyMail.com reported.
‘Trump dominated the space between his legal team.
‘He leaned back in his chair or moved forward to look at a video screen, like a silverback gorilla reminding the room who was boss.
‘When a decision went against him, such as when Judge Juan Merchán ruled that he would not recuse himself, he briefly showed his frustration, nodding furiously.
“But at other times he did his impression of a jurist: brow furrowed, head tilted as if considering the judge’s decision on the admission of Molineux evidence.”
Word of the hostile reports appeared to reach Trump, who reportedly “stared” at Haberman for several seconds as he left the courthouse.

“He looked at me intently and left the room,” she told CNN.
‘I want to make it clear that I have seen many people fall asleep in court. I’ve seen jurors fall asleep. I have seen judges fall asleep.
‘If someone falls asleep that they are a criminal defendant in a case, we will report about it.
“But he doesn’t like that kind of stuff being reported and I guess, I don’t know, that’s what it’s about.”
Jury selection is expected to last the rest of the week as dozens of potential jurors are screened for possible bias against the former president, who faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to disguise payments to former porn star Stormy Daniels. .

Others who had said they had no problem being impartial on Monday thought better of it on Tuesday.
On Tuesday afternoon, Judge Merchan was ready to begin the task of selecting from the first group of 18 to fill the final seats.
