Readers Write: Delete name of ex-president from discourse

The Island Now

It is time for all responsible press and media to bury the name of the disgraced former occupant of The White House. The name of this coarse reviled individual whose lame attempt at a coup d’etat (only his own malevolent incompetence prevented success) caused so much pain and horror must be deleted from the popular lexicon.

“Disgraced ex-President,” “former occupant of The White House,” “former administration,” etc. are all perfectly adequate replacements for referring by name to the horror of the last four years.

What brand?
