>>132948 >>132948 Calling "A Lid" I thought was a common term anon but that right there is dasting.
call a lid 1. To state that no more news will be released by the White House or a political campaign for a given period of time. The press secretary called a lid, so we won't be getting any more updates on the bill tonight. 2. To state that the president or a presidential candidate will not be making public appearances for a particular period of time. A: "I thought the president was going to be campaigning today." B: "Nope, his campaign called a lid, apparently. Wonder what prompted the change in plans."
