And I would strenuously object if asked to do so.

Like it or not, he still exists, and he is still a threat to our democracy. He is dangerous and will continue to be so until he dies or is beyond bars (or the GOP regains its senses and tells him to go pound sand). Ignoring him or pretending he does not exist would be very unwise, imo.

In addition to that, there has been an uptick of news lately regarding legal action that involves him, and I'm
pretty sure that's only going to increase.

I'm all for not uttering his name any more than is necessary. We have plenty of nicknames to choose from. But never mention him here at all? That's not going to happen.
