I remember when Bush #1 would pronounce Saddam Hussein’s name wrong, and always say Sad-Dam because it means something like camel balls in their language.
We should return the favor and sink to his level. Whenever you say his first name, put the accent on the second syllable instead of the first: donALD. Sounds like donOLD.
I always refer to him as "former" President. It's quite satisfying. I also refuse to capitalize trump's name because I'm a grammar nerd and it's my little way of showing that I have zero respect for him.
There is an episode of Monk with Jay Mohr as guest star playing an attorney that never loses, he tries various tactics in court to get Monk uncomfortable and discredit him
One of them is exactly this... blah blah is this true FORMER detective monk
That is the perfect delivery of how they should adress him as FORMER president chump, i mean he is not tye current one so why adress him as such
Retired generals always get the Ret. Before their names on TV graphic so it should be FORMER president
Yep, I've started to mispronounce the names of my MAGA family members who refuse to say her name correctly. "Hey, Aunt Deebra and Uncle Stove, how are you?" They hate it.
My issue is I've know both a "KAMA-la" and a "ka-MA-la" through different work contacts, and also there's multiple instances in pop culture. Also my brain is made of swiss cheese. I'm never actually sure if I'm pronouncing it right. The difference is, when someone points out the correct way, at least I TRY to remember it.
Is Kam-a-la. The first vowel is a "lot" vowel (or maybe a "palm" vowel. I have an almost complete merger between them.). The other vowels are the comma vowel (schwa).
But that is not how she pronounces it. The "m" in "comma" is either in both syllables or only the second. She says it in the first.
That would make the first vowel the lot vowel, but the father-brother merger is so common in America that she may be confusing the lot and palm vowels herself.

That’s a heck of a sag

I saw someone refer to him as Eric's dad and have done the same ever since.

When I heard him "speaking" back in 2015, I told my SO he talks like a 2nd grader.

I’ve been calling him orange twat. Seems to work.

You know what rhymes with Felon? Donald Trump. How? I don't know, but it does now.

This one is best. If they want to put the stress on the wrong syllable, we can do that too.

Call him FORMER President Duneald Troomp. With extra emphasis on former.

It’s funny how much calling Trump a felon ruffles up the right wing. You’d think you called his racial identity into question or something

I use my middle name. When a coworker refused to call me by that name that lasted all of two days when I started calling him Nancy.

Simplethingsdonewell
She explained it to Stephen Colbert by saying it's pronounced as the word "comma" with a "la" at the end.
zerovanity59
But that is not how she pronounces it. The "m" in "comma" is either in both syllables or only the second. She says it in the first.
That would make the first vowel the lot vowel, but the father-brother merger is so common in America that she may be confusing the lot and palm vowels herself.
Simplethingsdonewell
My brain occasionally pronounces it as ka-MA-la, but that's because of a 90's pro wrestler.
Niagaran
Trumpers were trying to spread the rumour that Kamala IS that wrestler, post-transition.
UprootedGrunt
Holy shit. THAT's why I have such a hard time and have to correct myself with her name so often. Thank you!

Glad to be of service!
