I have decided that the word “mainstream” (which is subjective to being with) has lost all meaning in the context of judicial nomination hearings. Senator Schumer has long politicized the word in this context and now Senators Graham and Cornyn have decided to up the political ante.
As such, it has become a word that I almost cringe to hear out the mouths of Senators in this context.

I think I’d say the same thing these days about “Mainstream” Media, especially when uttered by millionaires like Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly.
