Don’t attack Trump by going after his obvious negatives (He lies! He pays off porn stars! He’s vulgar and cruel!). That approach is a proven loser. Attack him for failing to do the positive things he said he’d do. (#1 ‘You didn’t build the Wall.’)
Good advice from @jackshafer.

It’s not “confusing,” or “more confusing than useful.” It’s very useful in describing something real. Sure, it can be erroneously invoked, as can any word. The left often wants to ditch words when they start to lose the argument around those words (e.g. “liberal” in the 1990s).
