Adjective used to describe a brash and
ill-conceived action with potentially disastrous consequences committed by an individual in a position of great authority, but who is of questionable cognitive faculties.
Though originally from the relatively obscure English literary term "dotard", referring to a senile individual, the term was revived in
late 2017 when it was used by North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un to describe US president Donald J Trump.
Alternatively, the term "dotarded" can also be interpreted as a portmanteau of "Donald" and "
retarded".
Michael: "I'm not convinced that
Donald Trump's foreign policy strategy of out-crazying the world's most brutal and unstable dictators isn't going to work"
Lilly: "You can't be serious. Playing nuclear
chicken with Kim Jon Un is f*cking dotarded, and may very well end up causing World
War III and the end of humanity as we know it"
Michael: "Yeah. True. I got nothing."
