    Is there really no other word apart from SLAM that those “journalists” (or perhaps AI bots) are taught to use? Just one other goddamned word? I’m so tired of everyone and their mother slamming everyone else all the time…

      They didn’t endorse or reject his agenda. They slammed it. Presumably into a table or something.
