IMO “bimbo”, like “slut”, is a misogynistic slur and should be avoided. ---

No warning, but let’s avoid calling people from either parties Bimbos. The connotation is mostly misogynistic though I acknowledge you’re using it for it other meaning. ---

> [@running\_coach](#): > > I could accuse her of selling out her principles to the highest bidder. > I could accuse her of being a lying traitor to the country. These would actually be much more accurate. McEnany has an undergraduate degree from Georgetown, and a law degree from Harvard. She transferred to Harvard Law School from the University of Miami Law School, where she received a scholarship awarded to students in the top 1% of their class. She’s definitely smart. Her deplorable spin for the Trump administration is a product of her dishonesty and lack of integrity, not a lack of intelligence. ---
