strategery
Comically flawed scheming
Strategery is a mock-malapropism for strategy, coined by Saturday Night Live in 2000 to parody George W.
Bush's verbal stumbles.
The word caught on as humorous shorthand for clumsy or dubious strategic thinking: What's the strategery here, boss?
It's used self-deprecatingly or to gently mock someone's planning abilities.
