This is a list of the prominent political figures and world leaders who have, at one time or another, been given an epithet based on Donald Trump in various media outlets. The politicians listed here generally earn the epithet through enacting wingnut and authoritarian (sometimes even outright fascist) behavior and policies, or exhibiting deranged, Trump-like behavior in general.

- "Chile's Donald Trump", former president Sebastián Piñera.[7]
- The "Brazilian Donald Trump", former president Jair Bolsonaro.[8]
