Tim Kaine: Daredevil
Senator Tim Kaine is one of Congress’s favorite dads. Anyone who has ever encountered a former vice presidential hopeful thinks that Kaine is not the wildest man of all. So, when Kaine’s Secret Service nickname was revealed, it was met by a few giggles from the Washington crowd. In fact, “Daredevil.” was called this gentle-manner Senator. After getting the words, the Daily Caller decided to write that Kaine’s code name was “so ill-fitting that it comes across as a deliberate self-parody.” Conversely, they called Kaine “a nice guy’s nice guy” as well as “generic.”

Gerald Ford: Passkey
While little is widely acknowledged about just how former President Gerald Ford did end up with the moniker “Passkey,” the Secret Service has spilled some other secrets about the 38th president. Ford was a dreadful tipper, apparently. Ford knew that he wasn’t carrying a lot of money on him, resulting in a bad reputation. Agents said that at an exclusive golf course, standard tips would go up to $50, and Ford would sometimes have only $1. The president occasionally did turn to his Secret Service specifics and asked whether they had any spare change to cover the tip.
