Dead on the money

This nice subtle malaphor was uttered by Joyce Vance, former U.S. Attorney, on the MSNBC show, The Beat with Ari Melber. She was talking about the lawsuit brought by Smartmatic against Fox. It is a congruent conflation of “dead on” and “right on the money”, both meaning exactly right or perfect. A shout out to Mike Kovacs for sharing this dead on the money malaphor.
