- 2025 May 16, Edward Helmore, “What does ‘8647’ really mean? Not what Trump’s supporters are saying”, in The Guardian[1], archived from the original on 29 July 2025:
- The number 86 has also been used by Republicans calling for the impeachment of Joe Biden – for example, T-shirts sold on Amazon reading “8646”, indicating a call to impeach Biden (the 46th president) – with some liberals accusing the right of deliberately misunderstanding Comey’s intent to score political points.
Usage notes
- While the phrase is typically used to call for impeachment, some have interpreted it as a call for death since 86 can also mean "to kill".
