8. Probably unpopular.

I'd prefer people just called him Trump when they criticize him online.

AI bots are all over the internet scraping and data-farming and tabulating and scoring estimates of popular opinion, and they're writing a lot of the "news" reports and editorials these days.

When so many of the most negative comments about him don't use his name, it could skew the results in his favor.

If people who praise him use his name and people who criticize hime don't, stupid AI can "learn" that people dislike "Orange Anuses" and "shitgibbons", but they like "Trump". Then that's how they write their articles, and more AI scans those, in a feedback loop.
