This reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Elaine breaks up with a guy who calls her a ‘big head’.

so wounded by being called a “short-fingered vulgarian” by Vanity Fair
editor Graydon Carter that he’s spent a quarter-century sending Carter
letters decorated with tracings of his hand-geometry to prove the length
of his fingers.
What if it’s all part of the plan ? What if he knew this is something that could one day be pulled out so that people would be distracted by talking about his fingers instead of arguing about his … uh, positions? (He has positions on things, right?)
I am intrigued by the theory that at the moment all seems darkest and his defeat is assured, he will suddenly appear with a haircut and completely dominate the news cycle until it’s too late.

The whole “short fingered vulgarian” thing was classic Spy Magazine when Graydon Carter was the editor. In my hazy memory of that awesome magazine from the 80s they’d add another adjective with every issue. So first it was “The Vulgarian Donald Trump”, then “The Short Fingered Vulgarian Donald Trump”, and eventually “The Irrelevant Short Fingered Vulgarian”. Lets hope that last one becomes accurate again.

Wow. He only uses bronzer on his face? And apparently is terrified of getting it in his eyes.

He’d have to actually know what a Vulgarian is to feel insulted by being called one.

Did Otto say “Bulgarian” or “Vulgarian?” Either way, it’s funny - either he misheard Vulgarian or had no clue what it meant.
I imagine you could call him an adroit, nonpareil optimate and he’d be offended if the tone suggested anything but obsequious praise. He seems to be the type that thinks with their gut.
