'Don't Call Him Don': Mark Hamill Taunts Trump With A Biting New First Name

Screen icon Mark Hamill called out Donald Trump for his “childish” habit of mispronouncing Vice President Kamala Harris’ first name, saying it conveys “disrespect & contempt.”

But rather than hope the former president comes around, the “Star Wars” actor suggested another approach.

“When they go low, we should respond in kind,” he wrote on X. “From now on, don’t call him ‘Don’. Call him ‘Done’.”




Trump has offered various and inconsistent explanations for why he repeatedly butchers the vice president’s name.

Anything to needle him, get under his skin, mock him, diminish him. NEVER call him Donald--"Little Donny," "Dumb-old," make up your own.....I gnash my teeth when judges address him as "Mr. Trump," but I guess they have to.

He is a FREAK, a misfit, anything else you want to label him--just put him down, insult, offend--whatever.

but poor, poor "Done's" little arms and hands can't reach around that amount of flesh to do it, and alas! no one else will come close enough to him to hug him, even if they wanted to do it.

I was fat all my life... spent an entire lifetime fighting to lose (and gain back) the same 50 pounds. But at least I had a decent enough amount of dignity to watch what I wear that it flattered me as much as possible. Done? He doesn't care enough about himself to wonder how he "presents" himself to the public. IF he did, he'd hide.

The media, however, picks the best image of him that they can. You'll never see this on TV. Even MSNBC wouldn't show this.

Very few people call him Don Trump.

I think it might be better to say "Darn-Old". It conveys just how ancient the guy is!

I suggest mispronouncing Done. Maybe so it’s pronounced Dough-Neigh (which is also how much money he will have after all his trials).

An accent somewhere might be a good touch.

Pretty sure, though, that both pix of him in this thread are Photoshopped. He's ugly inside & out, but these and a few other popular pix of him (at least one of him golfing) are bogus.

I wish Dems would stick to the truth. If I liked misrepresentation, I'd be a Republican.
