Of course, they can’t say “war criminal Donald Trump” because that would then invite people to call Biden a war criminal too

    Something like 3% of the population has been convicted of a felony. Most of us probably have a felon in our families or social groups and many of us probably know a felon whose conviction was bullshit. Using “convicted felon” as a pejorative in the most obsessively carceral society in the history of earth is bound to backfire.
