grifter

As Medvedev documented, the precondition for destroying public confidence in science is to demean and demonize scientists — as “enemies of the people,” as saboteurs and grifters.

A clown car full of grifters and kooks, meanwhile, used the primaries as an opportunity to suck up to Trump, whom everyone knew would inevitably be the nominee.

He was a part-time president but, as throughout his career, a full-time liar and grifter.

We have all heard much about the male loneliness crisis, and how masculinity grifters like Andrew Tate, Joe Rogan and Jordan Peterson exploit their audience's gender insecurities to sell them snake oil and right-wing politics.

Ultimately it only hurts those who need the help the most – but like most grifters, Trump doesn’t care.
