    They did that with Racist as well. They're really good about neutering words that should otherwise cause outrange, by applying it at every level and turn.

    There was no collusion because the so called evidence dossier was created by a UK intelligence officer paid by Hillary Clinton. Yet, Hillary Clinton was not investigated for it nor the UK intelligence officer who created the fake dossier? Democrat donors now withholding monies to the Democrats because they are sick of the antics of the Democrats who are wrong on the issues and continues their radical agendas. Republicans just need to remind US voters in the coming midterm elections how the Democrats have obstructed President Donald Trump's efforts to run a more efficient and accountable government. Majority of US voters approve of DOGE efforts to clean up the Federal bureaucracy.

    It is not an insult. It is a perfectly accurate description for how he is reorganizing the government. It can't lose it meaning over time when it is being applied accurately.

    What Stewart is saying is that when dealing with people who struggle with complex ideas, be mindful of overuse.

    The real question is: What term or argument would better convey the same warning in a way that lands with those who aren't already convinced?

    Sorry, my education shows sometimes and you are not an audience for thinky.

    Russia collusion and interference would be a crime. What crime did the 60 Minutes journalists commit?

    It... Is...

    To break the monotony though we might express it more varied ways.

    "Strongman politics" – emphasizes the consolidation of power.

    "Government by revenge" – highlights the weaponization of institutions against opponents through direct orders from the executive.

    "Loyalty over competence" – describes the preference for personal allegiance over expertise.

    "Minority scapegoating" – underscores the targeting of outgroups to maintain power.

    "Adolf the Aryan" – Sarcastically mocking Hitler’s racial ideology.

    "Herr Shicklgruber" – A jab at Hitler’s paternal grandmother’s surname, meant to undermine his legitimacy. Herr Drumpf?

    "Il Duce" – Mussolini’s self-given title, but often mocked in Allied propaganda.

    "The Paperhanger" – Used to belittle Hitler’s background as a failed artist. So many failures in Donny's past to reference..

    Replace "thinky" with "rambling" or "digression" and you're over the target.

    There was no Russian collusion or interference by the people the left were calling to arrest.

    There was no crime the 60 minutes journalists committed (as I said).

    I am saying both calls for lawfare were/are wrong. You are pretending they are different (to save face) and they're not.
