Many things can be true at once! Citadel can be illegally naked shorting a stock. $DJT can be a turkey of a stock with no fundamentals and Devin Nunes is definitely a fucking loser.

“Devin Nunes is the proverbial loser who tries to blame ‘naked short selling’ for his falling stock price,” the hedge fund said in a written statement.

What do they mean by “proverbial” in this context? Can’t we just say “Devin Nunes is a loser?”
