Specifically, "Fat Jerry."
Washington Post said:Assembling a group of House Republicans at the White House to talk trade last month, President Trump suddenly launched into a tirade about the congressman leading an extensive investigation into his presidency: his New York antagonist, Rep. Jerrold Nadler.
"Fat Jerry," Trump called the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee as he prattled on about Nadler's weight-loss surgery in the 2000s and suggested that the Democrat was still overweight, despite it.
"I've been battling Nadler for years," Trump told the GOP lawmakers, who were embarrassed by the outburst, according to several individuals in the room who spoke on the condition of anonymity to freely discuss the remarks.
Trump and Nadler are currently the main foes in a constitutional clash over executive power, as Nadler aggressively moves to investigate the president's conduct and weighs whether to hold impeachment proceedings. But Trump's jabs at Nadler were a fresh reminder that the animosity between the two native New Yorkers is personal as well as political — rooted in a decades-old fight over a tract of New York City real estate.
