Get the Underdogmug. An individual or group that is actively involved in politics who deal with issues that deal with a lot of political topics that most politicians that are from the political mainstream won't deal with, and take positions on issues that most politicians will not take. Often times the odds of them being successful are slim, even if their positions are good ideas, or the topic is worthy of the government's time and resources, and they have a decent amount of support among the civilian population, because of the amount of opposition they receive from other politicians and or political groups.
Kailani: I heard that U.S. Representative Brendan Boyle reintroduced the STABLE GENIUS Act, which would require presidential candidates to have a medical exam, including a mental health examination, and publicly disclose the results before the general election.
Ian: I heard about that. Regrettably, after the house voted to send the bill to the House Committee on House Administration, they never heard back about it. I suspect the bill might have encountered a large amount of opposition because most of the political candidates don't want to publicly admit that they have a mental health issue.
Kailani: It was generally a good idea nevertheless. Brendan is a good example of a political underdog.

Get the political underdogmug. A word some use to make the person/team that would usually win the the team that needs support, in order to make the other guy(s) the bully. It's a defensive strategy, that way you're always the underdog if you don't make it, and never the bully when you do, what kind of hypocrisy is worse than that?
The guy or team would call everybody else out on something while doing the exact same thing as what he/they were calling others out on. The guy team/would try and cut it as bullies without any of the negative stigma that goes with the title, then he/they would pretend to be underdog who was being picked on by the big, bad bully when it was convenient to do so.
