I& #39;d like to introduce a term: anti-endorsement.

An anti-endorsement is a denunciation that reflects favorably on a person. If, for example, Jeffrey Dahmer said that he disliked the detective who caught him, that would be to the detective& #39;s credit.

Though I don& #39;t think anyone has framed it quite this way, politicians have often made use of anti-endorsements. FDR famously said, "I welcome their hatred" in reference to the financiers who opposed his policies.

Every time a politician talks about "taking on" one special interest or another, they& #39;re highlighting an implicit anti-endorsement.

No one does this better than Trump. Here, he refers to "the establishment that& #39;s trying to stop us." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vST61W4bGm8">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

I cannot think of a better anti-endorsement than the one in the video at the beginning of this thread.
