What does UNSEAT mean in Scrabble?
verb
To remove someone from a position of power, or to cause a rider to fall from a horse, bicycle, or vehicle.
In politics, to unseat an official or a sitting representative means to defeat them in an election or otherwise force them out of office. In a more literal, physical sense, a horse can unseat its rider by bucking or turning sharply, throwing the person out of the saddle. Both uses share the same underlying idea of dislodging someone from a position they held, whether that position is a seat of government or a seat on a horse.
