notice how they hardly attack anything he did while in office. the only thing they mention about his presidency is j6. Everything else is character assassinations and shit flinging.
it's almost as if they don't want to call attention to the fact that the country was stable, prosperous, and relatively peaceful on the world stage during his leadership.
It's also because they don't HAVE anything on him, they spent YEARS investigating him and best they had was his lawyer paid off a pornstar behind his back.
Compared to the insider trading, trafficking, endangering civilian lives and disregard for individual liberties most other politicians have on their record, he's a fucking saint that's just a bit crass.
they spent YEARS investigating him and best they had was his lawyer paid off a pornstar behind his back.
Yeah, but, as everyone knows, it's totally a crime to pay a pornstar off and not call it a campaign contribution? Ignore that if anyone else did it they'd get in trouble if they did call it a campaign contribution. Ignore that if Trump had called it a campaign contribution they would have impeached and sued him for that too.
Ignore it all, and always remember...Orange Man Bad.
If it wasn't so serious, it would be hilarious. Even Trump's most diehard haters can't say exactly what he did "wrong," if you actually ask them to explain, and then provide even a tiny bit of pushback. It's amazing. They don't even know. You can tell them it should have been a campaign contribution, and they'll nod along. You can tell them he shouldn't have said it was a campaign contribution...and they'll still nod along.
I don't know that Donald Trump is as perfectly clean as their failed investigations suggest, but I'd bet the reason they don't dig up any of his shit from the 90's is because he was a Democrat and had a very close connection to people at the top of the party. He pal'd around with the Clintons until they basically seized control of the party and guaranteed he'd never run for president as a Democrat. That's where a lot of this animosity started.
Majority if not all the legitimate 'dirt' on him are business related in terms of using the tax system for write-offs, getting out of deals underhandedly etc can be seen as scummy but all legal as you talk to his employees and most praise him without being pushed.
He's at least not part of the pedo side of the establishment as he not only kicked Epstein out of his hotels to save an employee but testified against him in a court case. As he said he gave money to BOTH sides for influence, it's just in 2016 the Dems went full Clinton control while the Republicans were so weak he basically could walk in and seize power and the hubris of the left who had weakened the Republicans did see it coming.
That's why they hate him so much because he destroyed the plan to turn the Republicans into the forever second place protest party.
Donald Trump, for being a sex addicted 80's real estate coke head with a bastard littered family tree, is somehow the most moral person in America. The worst they've ever found on him is that he said women want to have sex with powerful people and that he loves to spend his mornings playing golf with people (Which by the way is how business deals are made). Trump lightly brushed research into the Biden family and found millions of dollars being laundered through the whore of Europe, Ukraine, funneled into Biden family pockets with Biden threatening the country to keep the cash flow moving through his offspring. Every one of Trump's loser children have been investigated a million times over and nothing came up so they had to start asking every one of his extended family to say something vaguely bad about him.
I wish the right was brave enough to spend a fraction of that investigative power on any family on the left, Obamas or Clintons or any number of senators that have thrown America into chaos to get a little bit more mammon in the pockets before everything collapses. But the Republican base is too judeo-christian subverted to believe "Turn the other cheek" means anything besides blind forgiveness to people who would have your bloodline purged.
Because no one does catty bitch better than a split tail.
I wonder, sometimes: does she think this shit still works to change opinions? Can she be so disconnected from real, non-professional class people such that what she thinks matters?
There are just so many useless people out there...
It's not about the claims themselves, it's about the sensory bombardment. Each round doesn't have to be match grade when your firing at 50,000 rounds a minute.
People will get feelings from stories like this, and they'll hold onto the feeling, but NOT REMEMBER where it came from.
It needs to be said more often because your last paragraph is on the money.
Most people would fail a Turing test. They're basically ameboes. Stimulus response. Stimulus response. (Granted I don't believe in free will to begin with so I'm coming at this from a fairly dark place as far as "the human spirit" goes)
The end result is it doesnt actually matter what anybody does or doesn't do, all that matters is what's memorable and framing. That's the basic idea of "fortifying an election" the number of people who are UNABLE and I don't mean haven't learned, I mean lack the capacity, to parse connotation and denotation separately is way higher than those who can.
"Republicans pounce" indeed. The fact that pounce, point out, seize, hold accountable, raise questions, bring up, push, question, call out, and comment on are exactly the same thing is lost on 80% of people.
I think your way underselling most people, and free will. Most people are simply not as you say. Most people are not actually NPC's. They are trained to be NPC's by the media and education on specific topics. This is where the Ghelman-Amnesia effect comes into play, as well as familiarity bias.
Most people don't think much about politics, so their cognitive load is entirely based on other topics. They know what they know about, and what effects them in their daily lives. Relying on conditioning for things like politics is merely an efficient use of their time because the effects of government, particularly federal, have very little direct and immediate effect on their lives.
The conditioning which is built to offload cognitive load is not easily given up because not having to worry about cognitive load is a major benefit. No one wants to be the weirdo droning on about the mechanisms of political intrigue, especially if feedback is not explicitly apparent.
As such, the media indoctrinates people more based on those feelings because they have actually conditioned people for decades to subscribe to a narrative that has pre-built conclusions for everything, so the only thing left is emotional stimulation which is just responding to whether or not the issue is difficult or complex enough to not fit into the narrative, causing emotional distress from cognitive dissonance, and adding to cognitive load.
What you are seeing is not animal psychology. You are seeing a highly refined, highly trained, mass psychological conditioning that is designed solely to make people's cognitive load lessened; while actually betraying them in the long run. It's a deception.
If free will weren't a thing, deception and counter-deception wouldn't even be necessary.
Your argument would be valid to me if I was only talking about politics. I'm not.
I'm talking about every aspect of life. And the PAINFUL slog it is to get people to even play pretend at critical thinking.
The conclusions that people draw from information is in my experience, barely even tangitally related to what the information actually IS.
And again, if I only saw this in politics id say you have a point. But it isn't. There are programed blindspots, I'm not disagreeing with you there. And there are people who could otherwise make connections and leaps of logic that don't because of that programming. But in my experience the vast majority couldn't. Even without the programing.
Free will is a separate issue, I don't believe it exists and I've yet to hear an argument that was convincing. Most boil down to "but it'd be totally lame if it didn't exist" and I don't find that paticularlu compelling.
That's what "Project 2025" is. Just schizo talk collected into a big scary book of every fear they have pinned to him, they've taken the idea of a false flag and turned it into propaganda against American citizens.
Last time I checked, morons don’t usually end up with billion dollar franchises that they built from the ground up. What exactly was the zinger here? “Trump is bad at being a businessman” no he’s not, 100% factually he is not. “Trump is bad at acting” ok maybe? What does that have to do with anything? I’m sure if you pulled a Wall Street guy from the street and had him act out a scene it would probably suck.

I'd agree with most of that, but the difference is that the Clintons seized control of the Dem party in something like 1991 or 1992
Not to the extent as just before 2016 as remember, Clinton got second place to Obama in 2008.
With the ego she has, I doubt that was the plan.
It completely wasn't. Obama is an insurgent that countered the Clinton regime. They still kinda hate each other.
Kamala Harris was more of a Clinton surrogate, but not she seems to be a Willy Brown surrogate.

Correct. It's effectively a
RedBlue Herring that centers people's emotional response as a trigger.They're not kidding about 'triggering' people. They are building triggers into people as weapons.
Just another erroneous claim 🤷
I believe you mean "baseless"
This is the film that got a standing ovation at a film. Festival right?
This is about Trump's old reality show of the same name. Someone apparently just wrote a book including this very newsworthy nugget of knowledge.
Plus we live in a time where anyone who has something negative to say about him gets wall to wall coverage
Last time I checked, morons don’t usually end up with billion dollar franchises that they built from the ground up. What exactly was the zinger here? “Trump is bad at being a businessman” no he’s not, 100% factually he is not. “Trump is bad at acting” ok maybe? What does that have to do with anything? I’m sure if you pulled a Wall Street guy from the street and had him act out a scene it would probably suck.
And we know this is true now because nobody brought this up for the 2016 election… or during Trumps entire term of office…
I’m still mad there isn’t a gorilla channel
Too bad they didn't succeed with Arnold when he took over the Apprentice
