I Love learning new words- demagogue

The news lately is talking about the Democraps "demagoguing" about if the damned government shut down, elderly would have nothing to eat but dog food and die.

I have heard the word "demagogue" for years and really never bothered to look up what it really means. So here it is-

dem·a·gogue [dem-uh-gog, -gawg] noun, verb, -gogued, -gogu·ing.

–noun
1. a person, especially an orator or political leader, who gains power and popularity by arousing the emotions, passions, and prejudices of the people.

2. (in ancient times) a leader of the people.

–verb (used with object)
3. to treat or manipulate (a political issue) in the manner of a demagogue; obscure or distort with emotionalism, prejudice, etc.

OK. Now I have a new word to use about CPS.  For instance-

"Child Abuse Awareness Month" is the very epitome of demagoguery. 

CHILD ABUSE MONTH- COUNTER THE PROPAGANDA

~By the way~
I have been collecting these hot words for quite some time and putting them in the Right Words folder.
