    R/theDonald

    /s

    Its unusual maybe, but with the current weaponization of the word weird its a point worth making. Its not weird to call someone by their first name.

    Awkward in as elections go, but I think its worth pointing out how completely normal it is to use her first name when refering to her.

    Its much like calling your parent by their first name. Its different, but not wierd in the new sense of the word weird

      Even back when it was in its heyday, people didn’t say “Donald supports this”, “Donald for President!”, “I love Donald!!!”, etc. It’s kind of unearned personal familiarity…
