Another trivial story in my Just Sayn’ series
This isn’t a ginormous story, but it was worth this on NBC News:
Here are two more articles: “Donald Trump re-branding himself as ‘45th president’ to get away from ‘damaged’ name, say experts” from The Independent, and “Donald Trump Name Change? Former President Uses '45' On Digital Properties” from The International Business Times.
The first comparison I thought of was Prince who changed his name to a symbol. NBC News made the same connection:
Like Prince changing his name to a symbol, Trump is defying convention. Former presidents typically use their numbers only as a shibboleth among insiders and friends. The only other president to regularly use Twitter, Barack Obama, has his old tweets archived at @ObamaWhiteHouse.
Then I thought maybe somewhere in the manly man machinations of The Former’s mind he made the connection between his macho greatness and the iconic Colt 45 revolver. Could be. On the other hand he might have been having the deeply unconscious morbid thoughts like those expressed in this song titled “45” by Shinetown.
There’s only one other president besides George Washington who can be identified, at least by many school children, by their number. Can you identify him? Hint: He may be the only president Trump admits may be greater than him.
Perhaps, I thought, the connections are arcane and cosmic so I decided that a search using DuckDuckGo here might help if I looked up “meaning of the number 45” to see if there was an answer there.
What I discovered is that there’s no universal precise agreement among the numerology inclined on what 45 means.

Numerology Nation says
Angel number 45 has a strong spiritual vibration or energy and the people who are linked to this number tend to have amazing ideas. Angel number 45 is also a reflection of their strong and incredible intuition.
These people have an amazing ability to predict a number of things. For example, they can sometimes tell what someone’s about to say before they even say it.
The most intriguing is the Biblical meaning from Riding the Beast: The long exposition begins:
-
Symbolizes the cosmic solidarity which is expressed in the life of all the beings - 5 x 9 = 45 - according to R. Allendy.
-
A compass opens at forty five degrees indicates that the matter is not completely dominated: there is not perfect balance between the forces of the spirit and the matter.
-
J. Boehme calls numbers 44, 45 and 46 the trinity of the human life.
So there you go. Remember, you read it here first.
The Poll:
One of Trump’s favorites, Kentucky Fried Chicken successfully rebranded itself as KFC prompting speculation as to the reasons, most of them incorrect. Once you’re well known by one name it can be difficult, and sometimes controversial, to change your name. Cassius Clay may be the best example of a success. Can Trump manage to get members of his cult, you know, the people who wave those big flags with his name on them, to call him by a number?
