I hear that it is being used with devastating efficiency on kindergarten playgrounds across the nation.

Yeah, right. Possible collusion to undermine the electoral process is just "another excuse."

The first person I've ever heard use that phrase was Hillary Clinton.

The house is on fire, there is smoke, heat, even a few flames and the cons are gathering around trying to convince everyone it's just a barbeque.

From the 1950's

However, Jones didn't invent the term. "Nothing burger" — originally often seen written as "nothingburger" — was likely first popularized in the early 1950s by a Hollywood gossip columnist named Louella Parsons to describe a person or idea that's essentially a whole lot of, well, nothing.

And Donald Trump was the first person you heard use the phrase "priming the pump."
