Why do MAGA weirdos love to include the J initial? Do they think it makes him seem more distinguished and less like an incompetent baffoon? Pretty sure even Trump when constantly speaking in the third person like a psychopath doesn’t include his middle initial, at least not the vast majority of the time.
Fair enough haha. Decided to look it up myself and apparently it was a trend started by Franklin D. Roosevelt. Newspapers liked using the initials since it saved space in headlines so it kind of stuck around.
Because Trump is super mad he wasn’t named Fred like his dad and always has been. What they do have in common is the middle name of a holy leader, with Fred his middle name was legit “Christ” and Donald it’s John the Baptist. His dead brother was Fred Christ as well but they gave him shit about caring about people until he drunk himself to death.

My guess is that it has to do with the president lots of people speak fondly of, John F. Kennedy. Trump fans want him to be revered in the same way.
Not entirely on topic but I’m curious, why do people include the F. In John F. Kennedy? Was there another well known John Kennedy at the time?
I mean people also said George W Bush a lot. But that might have been so no one confuses him with his incompetent father.
Good question. I don’t know, and I’m too lazy to look it up.

That’s not fair, lots of people would like to remember Trump in the same way they remember JFK.
gotta make sure to distinguish that they don’t wanna ride Donald l Trump, the dentist
People who include their middle initial I just think are dumb. Just reminds me of Philip J Fry.
I often see it between common names, which makes me think they might just be trying to differentiate.
Because of Barack HUSSEIN Obama.
I think you mean “Barack HUSSEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiinnnn (gasp gasp wheeeeze)… obama…” man, Trump is a dumb fuck.
