pragmatist

Eager to portray himself as a pragmatist, he understands, unlike others before him, that North Korea's nuclear weapons cannot be negotiated out of existence – at least not for the time being.

Which prompts Stiller, ever the pragmatist, to think, “Time is valuable.”

Former England goalkeeper Karen Bardsley believes she is a "pragmatist", while defender Lucy Bronze says she has had to "evolve" throughout her tenure.

He is a self-proclaimed pragmatist who doesn't want there to be something that can be labelled as "Starmerism", but at least we can now say that his guiding principle is fairness.

"But I'm not one of these ideological thinkers. I'm a pragmatist."
