The phrase "You can't polish a turd" is often attributed to U.S. politicians and has been used informally in various contexts, but its exact origin is unclear. It became popular in the late 20th century, particularly in political discourse, to suggest that no amount of effort can improve something inherently flawed. The phrase captures a sentiment about the futility of trying to improve bad situations or products.
