I think everyone should stop putting the word 'President' in front of the word 'trump*'

If people feel the need to be polite, they can call him 'Mr.', or just 'trump*'.

He hasn't earned, nor does he deserve the title of the office.

I never speak that POS's name nor would I ever concede that the office he occupies is officially his to hold.

What most people are thinking. I have never said or have written the that particular word with the idiots name. My president is President Obama.

He's just Spanky, Spanky Spank-me-now or Spanky Let-me-drop-my-drawers. No other words apply.

John O. Brennan ✔@JohnBrennan

This action is part of a broader effort by Mr. Trump to suppress freedom of speech & punish critics. It should gravely worry all Americans, including intelligence professionals, about the cost of speaking out. My principles are worth far more than clearances. I will not relent.

If it is good enough for his hush money contract with "Stormy", it works for general usage.
