        I normally heard about cats being called Roof Rabbit. I figured it would be groundhog, opossum, or skunk.

      I’m reminded of the phrase “Hoovervilles” which was used to describe the make-shift towns built during the presidency of Herbert Hoover at the start of the Great Depression. Apparently there were multiple terms named for Hoover in that vein:

      Democrats coined other similar terms that were jabs at Herbert Hoover: “Hoover blankets” were old newspapers used as blanketing, a “Hoover flag” was an empty pocket turned inside out, “Hoover leather” was cardboard used to line a shoe when the sole wore through, and a “Hoover wagon” was an automobile with horses hitched to it (often with the engine removed).

      Get ready to coin a new wave of disparaging terms for the things that Trump forces us to use to survive.
