    Take a swig when a politician says "The American People."

It's like Scott Walker knows about this, he keeps saying "the people of America"...

They weren't even that bad with it today, honestly.

My favorite is when they say stuff like "The American People know better than that, Obama/Bush/Trump! The American People are smarter than that! The American People are resilient!" etc, etc, etc.

It's the pandering use that really bothers me and cracks me up.
