After watching Oliver Darcy on Brian Stelter’s wonderful @ReliableSources say there is not a word for what FOX and even more outrageous outlets are doing with Trump’s reckless, irresponsible & dangerous election bullshit, I thought of a new word thoughtfully inspired by his own ranting delusion: shit-holian. You combine that with the wonderful German word for being hoisted on one’s own petard & you get a rather cogent, concise description of the Georgia mishigas so well presented here: shit-holian schadenfreude.
Loeffler reminds me of the earlier state of affairs in India’s eastern state of Bihar.
When the chief minister (equivalent of Governor) Lalloo Prasad Yadav was behind bars, he had his wife – a housewife with little or no education and experience – act as the chief minister of the state for years!
