Emily Nussbaum e) @emilynussbaum I like that he used the word "complexifier," bc it means that he definitely wrote it himself and is an actual person who would get into a petty argument with a copy editor.

Ok - how many of you had to Google Complexifier' to see if it was an actual word?
Alexa, is complexifier a real word? Sounds French to me... Here's a piece of context: My ownership of the Washington Post is a complexifier for me. It's unavoidable that certain powerful people who experience Washington Post news coverage will wrongly conclude I am their enemy. President Trump is one of those people, obvious by his many tweets. Also, The Post's essential and unrelenting coverage of the murder of its columnist Jamal Khashoggi is undoubtedly unpopular in certain circles. (Even though The Post is a complexifier for me, I do not at all regret my investment. The Post is a critical institution with a critical mission. My stewardship of The Post and my support of its mission, which will remain unswerving, is something I will be most proud of when I'm 90 and reviewing my life, if I'm lucky enough to live that long, regardless of any complexities it creates for me.)
Complexifier sounds like a word a Bush official would've invented in a presser about the Iraqi insurgency in 2003.
