@CJSprigman @newrepublic @MerylGordon Thanks. I went with what Merriam-Webster Unabridged calls the obsolete definition: "A brawling boisterous turbulent person." The shorter Oxford Dictionary, which puts a lesser emphasis on gender, adds to the definition in ways that perfectly fit Trump: "a blusterer, a bully." — PolitiTweet.org

It is also why NYC right now is so good with masks and there is relatively little pressure to open restaurants and bars for indoor dining. We suffered in the spring and most of us don’t have outdoor spaces like lawns. — PolitiTweet.org
