An instrument of oppression or persecution in the eyes of anti-maskers, anti-vaxxers, and religious folks, who believe that they won’t be infected because they are divinely protected from any coronaviruses and their variants.
With loved ones and friends succumbing to the delta variant, more and more Trumpublicans and conspiracists in a number of red states are coming to terms that both the mask and the vaccine could protect them from infection and premature death—talks about 666-vaccination or mask oppression have suddenly evaporated.

When mask wearing in most parts of the world remains mandatory to protect the population from infection, as a large proportion of them have yet to be vaccinated, with some anti-maskers or maskholes in the name of personal rights playing hide-and-seek with the authorities to avoid donning a face mask.
Although only fully vaccinated people are exempted from wearing a mask in public, tens of thousands of unjabbed diehard Trumpists in several red states pay lip service to the mask rules, because they figure out that the odds of them getting caught are very low.

When you irresponsibly or prematurely walk away from a math test or exam, instead of waiting until the end of the paper, when everyone is allowed to leave the room, because you can’t handle the difficult or brain-unfriendly questions, especially after boasting to the whole world that you have a “genius IQ.“
During the 60-minute math test the other day, everybody was surprised to see Don do a math trump, who consoled himself that he could always pay a Shapiro to sit for his SAT if he failed again.

The mutated strand of coronavirus from the “fine” city that is deadly to kids, as fictionally claimed by Opposition politicians in the Land of the Gandhis, which could usher in India’s third wave, if zero flights between Singapore and India are not enforced.
The authorities refuted the idea of the “Singapore variant,” which seems more like the Opposition in Delhi poking fun at the ineptitude of PM Modi and his team in containing the pandemic crisis.

When President Trump repealed the “leftish” Common Core Math, approved by President Obama, with zero idea how to replace it with a better “rightish” math curriculum to help millions of US students compete internationally in math—he just wants to pacify opponents of the “left curriculum,” whose children can’t cope with it, in exchange for their votes.
Does the stand-back-stand-by math sound like some curricular or mathematical equivalent of the repeal-and-replace Obamacare? If politics over math could increase the odds of getting the president re-elected, the risks are worth taking.

A phrase politicians use when they don’t like what the media are saying about them—headlines that expose them as liars or untrustworthy.
Probably no other world leader has uttered “fake news” more often than President Trump, who wants to demonize the free press by all means and at all costs—he denounces any article or broadcast that speaks ill of him and his administration as nothing but fake news.

Donald Trump’s pet word for any article or broadcast that exposes his white lies and shady deals, or for anyone who refuses to make him appear smarter or richer than he genuinely is.
Thanks to President Trump, “fake news” will probably be his most memorable presidential legacy long after he’s been impeached and imprisoned for branding that phrase in popular culture.
