Insolent, Intransigent, Invidious and Irksome

I came across a list of glorious adjectives on the interwebs machine and whilst perusing the list I sat in awe and wonder at the many marvellous ways one could describe the cluster fuck that is Trump. In no particular order and with much glee one might suggest that he is at the VERY LEAST…

Bellicose, Bilious and Boorish
Calamitous and Defamatory
Execrable and Feckless
Histrionic, Hubristic, Incendiary and Insidious
Insolent, Intransigent, Invidious and Irksome
Jejune, Mendacious and Meretricious
Minatory, Nefarious, Noxious and Obtuse
Pernicious.
Pervasive, Petulant, Platitudinous and Querulous
Rebarbative and Recalcitrant
Risible, Serpentine and Strident
Turbulent and Turgid
Ubiquitous, Voluble and Voracious

Of course, there are many more that could be attributed to the man child. Enraged, Repulsive and Disturbed to name but a few.
Feel free to add to the list😊 Have at it.

ie. "boorish feckless popinjay"

1 adjective, and it's not as effective
More than 2, and it's overkill

I remember another site with this sort of "Chinese menu" (1 from column A, 1 from column B, 1 from column C) but can't seem to recover it.
