Tool-chest Politics
The dialectical forms of government, according to Plato, are a succession of governments that replace the preceding one when the preceding one can no longer sustain itself. They are:
Timocracy, which is replaced by an Oligarchy (also called Plutocracy or Monarchy), which is then replaced by a Democracy, which is then replaced by Tyranny (also called Despotism). In Tool-chest Politics all forms of government are respected according to their purpose in checks and balances when considering critical observation of the other forms, somewhat like the three branches of the United States Government: Executive, Legislative and Judicial; also similar to how factional parties 'keep an eye on each other', such as the Democratic and Republican Parties in the U.S. Tool-chest Politics thinks outside of the box, so to speak, and observes the cycle of governments as a whole integrated system, each dependent on each other. An example of a country that utilizes this style of government is the United Kingdom.

Blexas
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.

Ratfucker
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.
