cuñado

In Spain, this word, which literally means "brother in law" has recently been used as a colloquial way to describe someone (usually adult men) with traditional and simple-minded right-wing views that tend to speak on issues as an expert and a connoisseur, even though he's clearly none of that.
Basically, someone that speaks to show how "intelligent" he is but without actually saying anything fairly interesting or groundbreaking.
Mediocrity.

Habla de la situación política de Venuzuela como si fuese un experto cuando en realidad solo sabe lo que ha leído por los comentarios de Facebook. Menudo cuñado.
