VPOTUS
Oval Office understudy
VPOTUS is an acronym for Vice President of the United States, used in government communications, journalism, and social media.
Like POTUS for the president, it serves as shorthand in headlines and official contexts: VPOTUS will attend the summit.
The term gained wider recognition as social media made such abbreviations more visible to the public.
