Repubs and Trump have often capitalized off of naming things they dont like.
I suggest that every time a Dem references Trump now that they also mention Muellers investigation of RussiaGate.
Can we really vote on a new SCOTUS while Trump is being investigated for his role in RussiaGate.

(81,222 posts)We certainly can call it RussiaGate. Rolls easily off the tongue, and easy to remember. And it's easy to repeat. The Asset makes sure we have lots of continuing and new reasons to keep it well-exercised.

Giving something a name helps it last longer and helps the low information voter relate.

(23,944 posts)i'm just about done with every scandal, minor and major, getting stuck with a "gate" suffix as if Watergate is the only political crime worth remembering. at this point, i'm not sure Watergate makes it to the top 5.
Tre45on is the Reason for the Season. i'm sticking with that for now.
