Royal Brute King George?

Answer:
Royal Brute was the name William Whipple, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, used to describe King George. In a letter to his brother (1775), Whipple used the phrase "the Royal Brute's Forces and Pirates" to describe the British King, British Army and Royal Navy.

Thomas Paine, the writer of The Rights of Man and Common Sense, also used the phrase in the political tract Common Sense. It was published in 1776.

Thomas Paine is sometimes credited with coining the phrase, but the letter by William Whipple was written months earlier, so I am not sure who originated the term.
