One of the best assessments of the Joker comes courtesy of Vulture, whose description nails exactly that feeling that Leto's Joker was always going to be more of a juggalo, and a pimp, with positively venereal spirit oozing out of him:
"There’s also something icky about her ardor for Leto’s uncharismatic Joker. Part James Cagney, part Heath Ledger (who also had a touch of Cagney), Leto doesn’t seem so much unhinged as unhygienic, like a crazy Method actor with no safe word. When he paws his little blonde thing, you wonder how she can stand his rotten breath: Is that why she’s swooning?"
Given his on-set behaviour, it all makes sense.
