I Am Finally Able To Use The Prefix, 'President', Again!

After eight long years, I am finally able to use the prefix, 'President', in front of the name of the current White House occupant's name.

I can't tell you how good that feels to me.

[Windflier]

Say it:

President Trump!

For the first time in 8 years, I can smile when I see the White House on TV, knowing who is living in it now.

I am looking forward to watching the fireworks on the Fourth of July!

Same here. NOT once did I call obamatard “president”. I think I slipped a bit with p Resident’, but that was as close as it got. And never called the sasquatch by her real name either..

President Trump

replaces ex-resident Barry.

[Go No]

Look up the word prefix.

A blessing is a form of empowerment.
And naming a person or thing is the most basic form of blessing.

Thus, for the past eight years I have done everything I could to avoid speaking the name or (presumptive) office of The Usurper.

If anyone wonders at the prudence of such an extreme I would encourage them to read this highly illuminating article on the true nature of the name that The Usurper picked for itself:

And in that same spirit, I welcome with most heartfelt thanks for his personal sacrifice President Donald Trump.

I have had the American flag affixed upside down in my car for the past eight years. It felt so good to turn it upright on Friday. Sadly, only two people ever made a comment about my flag—both were retired military.

President Donald J. Trump. It felt so good to type this salutation. It has been eight long years since I have used this in reference to the resident of the White House.

I can now put the stamps on letters right side up now. Been waiting eight years to do that. Thanks to President Donald J. Trump.

Pre-fix. :)

I’ve been flying a pirate flag for years.

Same here! I have not used the title “President” in 8 years.

Beats el-excremento. Anyone see that photo of the thing that shall go unnamed on drudge like he’s going to prison?

Yep.

Not ONCE, in eight long years, did I ever allow myself to call our nation's acting CIC, 'President'. Not in print - not in spoken word - nor in my personal thoughts.

Until now, it never fully registered with me, how much of a personal sacrifice it was, to experience that self imposed void.

[Windflier]

Look up the word prefix.

Whatever are you implying, FRiend?

[Anoreth]

Yeah man, you sure did give up a whole lot there.

[tomkat]

I actually poked around whitehouse.gov for a few minutes today .. it's been enemy territory for so long that it felt quite odd to do so.

Me too !   :-)

For the first time in 9 years, I am again proud of my country.

Not embarrassed, even.

For the first time in eight years, I’m proud of my country again.
