Now that we're entertaining the very real possibility that The Outlaw Donald Trump will be our next president, I think it's time we have a meaningful conversation about how to address him properly.
Many on the left have helpfully offered the tried and true "convicted felon." Billionaire Alex Soros, whose father has helped elect numerous progressive district attorneys, suggests referring to Trump as such "at every opportunity."
Democrats should refer to Trump as a convicted felon at every opportunity. Repetition is the key to a successful message and we want people to wrestle with the notion of hiring a convicted felon for the most important job in the country! https://t.co/WLLMWatlkP

We can be certain that Joe Biden and his campaign will do just that.
Isn't it interesting that those who seem to push the hardest for criminal justice reform and prosecutorial leniency are advocating so forcefully for such a derogatory label? It's almost as if their advocacy is driven by politics rather than the pursuit of justice.
