Kathy, I know you're frustrated that the President won't pay attention to you, but I hate to break it to you: that's NOT what that verb means.
Saw Shaquille O'Neal on "The View" a couple of years ago. They were trying really hard to get him to talk down Donald Trump. He wouldn't do it. He said, in effect, "Donald Trump is my friend. We play golf together. I go to his house and he comes to mine...I'm not going to dis my friend."
I don't know how he voted, but at least he isn't "feckless".
