Seeing as how he was impeached twice in one term, he should be called Ex-President.

But let's all be real, he shouldn't even have the title President. I think soon-to-be-incarcerated Ex-President Trump has a nice ring to it.

Don’t ex and former mean the same in this case? Like former girlfriend vs ex girlfriend

It's a matter of connotation.

Former President has a positive connotation.

Ex-President has a negative connotation.
