- klyrs 5y agoYes, and it's appropriate to address Trump with the same honorific. But referring to him in present tense as "the president" is quite different than addressing him as "Mr. President", and it's the former that raises an eyebrow Curiously, your link suggests that Trump liked people calling him Mr. Trump even while he was president, where that was seen as passive aggressive when done to Bush II.
