I'm as guilty as the next person for calling Dictator Trump all kinds of bad names. It’s like having a contest with one's self to see if you can come up with something more ingenious each time you want to describe this vicious monster!
While it feels good to call such a fowl creature insulting names, it’s obvious nothing anyone has called Dictator Trump, so far, has made any difference!
But unlike name calling, titles have power. Think of the title “Dr.” It shows a person has achieved something so significant the honor remains with them for the rest of their life!
By calling Trump a dictator we are speaking Truth to Power. We are making it more obvious to the less informed among us that someting really bad is afoot.
Unlike the Daily Kos community, the vast majority of Americans are simply not that interested in politics or current events. By referring to Trump consistently as “Dictator Trump” it will begin to pierce the fog of ignorance in some people. They will begin to wonder why Trump is being frequently referred to as a Dictator.
Most of you reading this will probably think what we call Dictator Trump is a trivial matter. But I disagree. If you can come up with a more ingenius name or title feel free to do so! Clearly defining your enemy is always a really good idea!
