Just say no to interregnum

The word seems to be everywhere on cable news and Twitter. Merriam-Webster’s definitions:

1 : the time during which a throne is vacant between two successive reigns or regimes

2 : a period during which the normal functions of government or control are suspended

3 : a lapse or pause in a continuous series

There is no throne. There is never not a president. And we don’t (yet) have a declaration of martial law.
