    I found Patrick Mahomes’ performance quite the feat of prestidigitation that befuddled the defense but lifted his team to exuberant heights.

    Maybe this belongs in the D&D, but, I feel like ambitious demagogues indoctrinated in recondite semiotics may manipulate the fortunes of polities through sophistical rhetoric and the obfuscatory hermeneutics of incendiary logomancy.

    regardless.

    I'd be thrilled if the entire low-IQ populace replaced the fictitious "irregardless" with the actual word "regardless."

    The antiquarian Latins were very aware of the hazard of beneficent demagogues expressing the Vox populi metamorphosizing into tyrants.
