Hey why isn't America metric yet?
Because fuck your commie units. You aren't truly free unless you know what a yard is.
Well someone is sure feeling under pressure: Trump's lawyer has told 4 different stories about the Russia-Ukraine 'peace plan' debacle.
Give the White House Counsel a break. It's his job to prevent scandals before they happen, and so the man has the single most impossible job in all of D.C. right now.
I've literally never heard quisling anywhere in any context, but then I've never heard Benedict Arnold except in reference to the eggs.
Quisling is not a word you'll hear often, but in the right circumstances it does allow you to sound like an indignant Victorian (despite the fact that Quisling is named after a WW2 collaborator, Vidkun Quisling).
It basically means traitor to the people.
No reason to not be specific. A Quisling is a collaborationist politician or other government employee (I have seen it used to refer to military forces) who supports the occupation. You
could use it in place of "collaborator", but that's the
absolute limit of the word. I've never seen it used outside of that context. A traitor to the people for reasons unrelated to support of military occupation by a hostile foreign power would never be called a quisling. Selling out your country by trading state secrets (which some people accuse Snowden of, and which
seems similar to supporting occupation) is still not somewhere where you'd use the phrase "quisling". It's only "supports the occupation of their homeland".
