Sure, the nickname is older, however the forum is more likely to be what today's readers are looking for. This redirect is especially useful because of the convoluted spelling of "/r/The_Donald". Finally, there is no article on the nickname, and the list of presidential nicknames is just not a

I'd like to echo
Molandfreak's comment. The primary topic for "The Donald" is the dude, not the subreddit about the dude, and the idea that "today's readers" are looking for a subreddit more than the man himself is preposterous. The subreddit only gets

This is insane..I can`t even follow what it is about..there has been no discussion on the trump page for a week..what is the purpose of the talk page and what is the purpose of this article ?

The Reddit forum is merely a fan site for the person who is the primary topic. It does not approach the notability of the topic itself! (and as a subreddit, its name starts with "r/"). —

has no clear primary topic, which is why it is best rendered as a small dab page. This setup has been stable since the last discussion in

How is a redirect to the subreddit page more relevant? Trump has been known by this nickname a lot longer than the subreddit has existed.--

727:. No, "The Donald" is such a weird way to refer to the sitting president that the term almost exclusively refers to the Reddit forum.

613:. I think that shows just how ambiguous the name is. Yes, the president is much more significant, and more likely to be searched for
