Red Tide: noun
1. a discoloration of seawater caused by a bloom (large concentrations of aquatic microorganisms) of toxic red dinoflagellates. It is caused by microscopic algae that produce toxins that kill fish and make shellfish dangerous to eat
2. a discoloration of facts caused by a bloom (large concentrations of media microorganisms) of toxic anti-red state journalists. It is caused by microbial scum that produce toxic fake news red alerts about Russian hacking in hopes of killing Trump’s presidency and making Republicans dangerous to elect.
