extraneous

Mostly, people who don’t have extraneous funds to pay for tailored matchmakers or one-on-one dating coaching want apps to more mindfully use their data to pair them off.

When more theatrical elements come into play — such as the Mexican flower lady crying, “Flores para los Muertos” — the staging feels almost intruded upon by an extraneous sensibility.

Even when taking into account efforts like Elon Musk’s supposed army of paid volunteers, Harris’s on-the-ground efforts are three times the size of Trump’s, according to the Washington Post: “She boasts more staff, more volunteers, a larger surrogate operation, more digital advertising, a more sophisticated smartphone-based organizing program and extra money for extraneous bells and whistles typically reserved for corporate product launches and professional sports championships.”

You might think this is obvious—the party insisting on the extraneous demand in a shutdown game of chicken will always get the blame—but Trump, as the Bulwark reported, had been arguing that the president’s party always gets blamed for a shutdown.

While a few extra characters are left at loose ends and therefore feel extraneous, those aren’t necessary for the communication of the central ideas of class warfare and hypocrisy.
