Team Trumps words are fulsome, all right
Word of the Day: 'Fulsome"
"Donald Trump Jr.’s lawyer Alan Futerfas was quoted in the Aug. 1 front-page article “Trump crafted son’s statement on Russian contact” as saying that he and his client “were fully prepared and absolutely prepared to make a fulsome statement” about the meeting.
That’s one of the problems with much of what we hear and read from the president and his entourage. Their statements are often “fulsome,” which, according to my dictionary (American Heritage), means “offensively excessive or insincere.” Another dictionary (Chambers) elaborates: “sickeningly obsequious, nauseatingly affectionate, admiring or praiseful; loosely copious or lavish; excessive.”
Does this sound familiar? Trump Jr.’s attorney needs to brush up on his vocabulary and definitions."
