pumpkin-head
This term for a fool or dolt or round-headed individual has been around since the mid-1700s.
It's perfect for Trump, who is indeed a round-headed dolt/fool, in addition to being very orange.
Very, very orange.
Please stop wrecking the country, President Pumpkin-head.

This wonderful word is defined by the OED as "A fool; a stupid or unpleasant person."
Trump takes the hat trick: he's all three.
This example of 1920s slang deserves a revival in the 2020s.

"Dough-cake" is a rarely used term that, in addition to its literal meaning, popped up in the late 1700s meaning a fool or idiot.
The president is a dough-cake, and a stale one at that.
