infirmercial

A long-winded television-based sales-pitch spiel dat comes across as wimpy and insubstantial.
To take da term "infirmercial" in a literal sense, some of said boob-tube-bee-ess presentations may indeed promise products/services/practices dat supposedly will cure yer lethargy and boost yer vitality, but predictably, about da only effect dat said pricey offerings actually have is to make yer FINANCES more "infirm"! :P

Infomercial Fail 

To fail amazingly badly at a basic or simple task. Infomercials use this kind of exaggerated, highly unlikely failure to demonstrate the nonexistent or dubious "problem" the product in question supposedly solves (i.e. trying to crack an egg into a bowl and instead splattering egg and crushed shell pieces all over everything within three feet, hammering a nail into drywall and sending the hammer right through the wall, eating a sandwich and having its entire contents fall directly into your lap, etc.).
Just full-on infomercial failed at cracking an egg. Twice.

Infomercial 

A show that comes on around midnight or so to advertise a useless product. It lasts about 28-30 minutes with cheesy and over-the-top acting. Most of the time, you watch it when you can't get any sleep and you're too tired to know any better. In this state, you're convinced that you're in desperate need of a small step ladder with an mp3 player and bluetooth capabilities.
That infomercial convinced me that I need a shower radio that can also dice tomatoes. I think I wasted that $150.00.

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.
