      Had to chew on this to figure it out.

      Enemas inject things, so why would it make someone smaller?

      Enemas are used to clear stools. Constipation relief.

      Ahh. I get it now.

        Don’t feel bad, it was a very subtle jab. The best part was it was at the end of a Fox News interview as they cut away, so it was what I liked to call a sarcasm grenade. Pull the pin, let it sit for a minute. Boom.
