When it comes to lambasting Democrats or the left, you’ll often hear the same set of criticisms.

“Arctic frost is an orange tree variety,” one of the panelists explained. “It’s an orange tree. So it was specifically chosen because of the big, bad orange man.”

To be clear, this is little more than speculation and (fairly educated) theorizing.

“Arctic Frost,” for all we know, could be how former special prosecutor Jack Smith refers to an ex-wife.

But given the left’s obsession with denigrating Trump (“Orange man bad!”) at every turn, is it really that much of a stretch to think that a clandestine government operation would be named after an orange tree variety?
