Here is an article about a new term which may pop up any day in the U.S.

Bill Maher says Catch 22 means if you claimed to be insane to get out of combat, it actually proved you were sane. However, Catch 23 means if Donald never makes you insane, you are insane!

I like it. It extends to our Boris too.

I thought someone would catch me up on that definition of Bill Maher's of Catch 22. I think that definition is pushing the envelope.

I don’t know what Bill Maher has to do with Catch 22 but your quote was a pretty accurate paraphrase from Joseph Heller’s novel.

I thought Heller's definition was more like being between a rock and a hard place.
