I think certain words are in such common use that they have lost all meaning. They are like someone who reflexively says, “Uh” when speaking.

* When Obama was president everything negative that happened, things he did not anticipate or handle well, were all declared “unexpected.” This was used by the author to explain why Obama did a poor job and was not to be held responsible for bad results. I finally saw the word used in an article about Trump. It was used to explain a good jobs report. This was intended to remove from Trump any ownership of the good news.
