In America, it's a descriptor that is applied to other countries .... but not their own.
- Didn't the president just use that descriptor to refer to America? It's all over american political discourse, too. What you are on about.
  
  Thats a pretty recent development, and as such is why people had to look it up, which was the point of the comment.
  
  But they don't need to look it up when describing other countries... I see...
  
  There are other countries?
