Etymology

The term 'gummer' originated in British English slang, where it was first used to describe a person who talks excessively but accomplishes little. The word is derived from the verb 'gum', which means to talk aimlessly or foolishly. Over time, 'gummer' has become a popular term in political circles to criticize individuals who are all talk and no action.
