    Ah, thank you very much. You know, we all know US-ians love their appreviations, but without the right context they are just confusing.

    I just figured it would be obvious in the context of "person who won the 2016 US presidential popular vote" mb.

    Somehow it is annoying for a lot people when appreviations are used and people expect to know the context.

    Would you know the Context when I talk about FJS buying tanks that not even the manufacturer liked, or the planes that became known as "the widow maker"

    No, because we're used to get full names... I didn't even know Hillary Clinton has a middle name. In german media she's always just Hillary Clinton.

    And I think this is some US defaultism the world shakes it's head over.
