The closest to Malcolm is probably Congressman Furlong (in terms of profanity), but he just doesn't pop up as much.

I just rewatched the scene a couple of times out of curiosity and I could see how one could hear "crunchy" because there is a slight hard c sound, but it still sounds like punchy. The "I'm just saying words" explanation would make more sense if "crunchy" was the last word he ended on and he then realized his…
