-
(US, abbreviation, acronym, alt-of)Acronym of President of the United States.
“It makes sense that ex-POTUSes don't tend to make it onto juries.”
“It felt like every Asheville restaurant had a framed photo of Daniel Day-Lewis and Madeline^([sic]) Stowe dining in their establishment, taken when the pair resided in a downtown hotel during the 1991 filming of The Last of the Mohicans. If not those two, then there was a pic of another duo, James Garner and Jack Lemmon, who marched through the streets of Asheville in a scene when they (as former POTUSs) accidentally crash a gay pride parade in My Fellow Americans.”
