A contraction of either "It would" or "That would". Used to shorten a sentence down in an easy to understand manner. Emulates Olde-English without accurately being such.

(You would use "t'was" or "'twas". People more commonly spell the word "t'was" as "'twas", but it is more accurate to say t'was according to the rules of contraction in English grammar.)
James: Wanna go hang out at the mall next week?

Jill: T'would be cool. T'would be nice if you'd give me a call later this week to remind me though!

James: Would it? T'would be very difficult, since I don't have your number!

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.
