    The first one a handful of people tried to make happen and it didn’t. Never heard of the second or third and I don’t even know who you’re talking about. Absolutely no one called her the fourth, but I’ll give you the last one.

          Tbf this is the first time I’ve seen Jackson’s name abbreviated like that. It took me a second to get hers. But I feel like ACB is fairly common. Then again, maybe her name just jumps out at me immediately because I have a special hatred in my heart for women who turn against women. Fuckin’ removed.

          Either way, I wasn’t agreeing or disagreeing with the sentiment of politicians using initials for their names or not, just stating whose initials they were.

        I’ve only heard those two referred to as Barrett and Jackson at the minimum. Why is it so prevalent to call politicians by their last name?
