throwing red meat
The expression “throwing red meat” is a political idiom that means to provide appeals or attacks that excite one’s core supporters. The metaphor is based on the idea of feeding raw meat to animals to make them more aggressive. Red meat can be used to blame a scapegoat, to highlight a controversial issue, or to rally the base for a campaign or an agenda.
