shaggy dog story 

A long, harrowing tale often beset by misfortunes that the protagonist endures, only for all his/her/its/their victories to be rendered pointless in one move.
The quintessential shaggy dog story goes like this: One day, a man was hiking when he had a terrible fall. Then, he was discovered by a shaggy dog. The man worked through the pain to take the dog home. After tending his injuries and feeding the dog, he discovers in the papers that a rich couple were looking for a shaggy dog, and were offering a reward for anyone who found it. The man then sold everything he could think of to buy a ticket to the owner's residence area. He even paid extra for handling the dog. When the man landed, he scraped just enough money to get a car. He went to the dog's owner's mansion, but missed the gate. When the man got to the door, he and the dog were shot dead by a guard.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
