▪︎ Instead of “conservative,” say “MAGA” or “right-wing”

▪︎ Instead of “conservative firebrand,” say “Hardline MAGA” or “Ultra MAGA”

▪︎ Instead of “traditional conservative values,” say “fundamentalist Christian values.”

▪︎ Instead of “Pack the court,” say “Reform the court”

▪︎ Instead of “Fox News,” say “FNC” (after spelling out Fox News Corporation once)
