Meretricious

apparently attractive but in reality not having any value; tawdry (can be used on both physical and non-physical things)

@wetoldyoumovement.bsky.social

Low quality, tawdry, garish, meretricious, sleazy, gaudy, shoddy, vulgar, lack of good taste...

And I haven't even started talking about the cheap and flashy wall decorations yet

Obama once joked about what a gaudy (tacky, meretricious) Trump White House would like – the president seems bent on proving him right

I was able to read this article because my "limited access to WSJ" hasn't run out yet.

@wsj.com I would SUBSCRIBE to the WSJ if you put all the headlines of your OPINION pieces behind a link so I didn't see them accidentally. They are so stupid and meretricious it actually hurts to read them.
