now look how easy i killed your made up nonsense? stiffnecked, what you see here is just how wrong your worldview is. You thought it was or is an obama thing, when in fact it is widely used and has been for the longest time.
Your argument makes no sense. Just cause the word is defined doesn't mean anyone was using it. You can't even find a single example where anyone was using it on a newscast or in a political speech prior to 2008.
The Republican party once had nobler goals (at least ostensibly), but following Trump's lead a new kind of people have swarmed into the party. Many had not voted in years, even decades. Not real Republicans, but they have infested the carcass.
The Republican party is rotting from the core, and oozing out a vile pus ...
The divisions in the GOP are political, not tribal.
And the division isn't between party leaders. It isn't within Congress in any significant sense. The division is between GOP leaders and politicians and the political base that voted for Trump.
Trump is not a conventional Republican or Democrat.
He is a nationalist populist with white nationalist overtones.
That goes against the globalist, multiculturalist agenda of both political parties -- the Republican ideal of globalism being oligarchical capitalist in nature, the Democratic ideal of globalism being more socialist, but still oligarchical (elitist) and capitalist.
Why is so much of the Republican base -- and some Democrats also -- defecting from the two parties and voting for Trump?
Because they have watched the agendas of the two parties being put into effect for the last fifty years, feel that they have gotten nothing, and have had enough.
The Republicans either follow the Trump voters or their party is finished as far as winning the White House is concerned. They wouldn't have won the White House without Trump. In fact, without him, they were never going to win it again because of the demographic changes in this country.
The Democrats are betting that their tribal politics -- pandering to feminists, racial minorities, and non-white immigrants in particular -- is their ticket to permanent victory.

The thing is, Moore is a perfect representative of the current religious right. The fact that he rode a horse to the polls make perfect sense when you consider that his base longs to return to an idealized past. They hate the present and are terrified of the future. They want to return to a day when we were "one nation under the Southern Baptist God", women were in the kitchen, gays were in the closet, the church was the center of the community, and "those people" stayed on their side of the tracks. That's what Roy Moore stood for which in the grand scheme of things is a big part of what the modern Republican Party stands for.

oh please you failed to follow super simple instructions and then replied with bs.
so i will try again, but this time please try harder stiffneck.
google the word, click through look at the historical usage graph. it clearly shows the word is widely used for many many years and has NOT seen any real decline or growth in the last decade....
Now instead of attacking the messenger just try considering how your bias led you to this discussion...
