Donald Trump in 2016 about the US journalist Megyn Kelly: “I refuse to call Megyn Kelly a bimbo, because that would not be politically correct. Instead I will only call her a lightweight reporter!” #RhetoricOfSilence #shhh #politics #rhetoric #silence #TeamRhetoric #rhetodons #RhetoricalFigures

"Tongues are my Element, I declare,
I'll walk with any man on Earth,
And yet a dearth
Of words will never fear.
The fertile Cups best 'Dictionairies' are.
And as for 'Rherotick', that two-handed Art
Which Play's both Plaintiff's and Defendant's part,
To me 'tis Natural: for ev'n now, what e're,
Me-thinks, I Look on, Double doth appear."

(C. Darby: Bacchanalia, Or, A Description of a Drunken Club, 1683, 12th stanza)
