The statement said: “Many Democratic governments, including the United States government, have previously reviewed such proposals and reached the same conclusion: that classifying the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist group is completely detached from reality and not supported by any evidence (…) The facts have not changed.”
It added: “But what has only changed is the level of external pressure, especially that exerted by the United Arab Emirates and Israel, to adopt policies that serve foreign agendas and not the interests of the American people”.
“Don’t tell me what I want, you anti- American piece of shit! You terrorist!
You know, you use that word so much it’s lost all meaning, Mr. P(resident)
It’s like, at this point, what’s a terrorist? It’s a guy you don’t like. Big deal.”

I’m no fan of the Muslim Brotherhood, but yeah “terrorist organization” is nuts. If this word ever had meaning (it didn’t), it sure as hell doesn’t now.
To be fair, Venezuela is also a “terrorist organisation” now. The word does not mean anything except “does not align with the US”.
Terrible not only because its inaccurate but because massacres by various Arab oligarchs have basically destroyed the organization as a coherent group.
