I had been desperately looking for a term to combat their use of p.c. on us for years. Then Kellyanne Conway, who just can't help herself, gave us a gift by blurting out a very Orwellian sounding term, Alternative Facts. And now, if we're smart, we can use this against them over and over again. It's just going to make things so difficult for them.
