And speaking of successful presidential campaigns ... Did you notice how Trump's campaign really generated a lot of support down the stretch once he stopped posting these stupid messages and focused instead on issues that really matter to Americans?
So then let this guy do what got him where he is.
Just because you cut a check, doesn’t men you were in on the decision making during the campaign.
See Post #41. Posting inane messages on Twitter wasn’t what got him where he is right now.
And maybe then he can “turn the other cheek”, then more of this stuff happens.....then he can keep doing that some more to alleviate your weak stomach?
And then soon, like I said, you have the same people complaining that “Trump wont fight baaaaaaaaack!”.
This is a guy that does fight with both fists. A new concept to lots of folks on the right, so maybe seeing it in action makes a few people “uneasy”.
“I dont care about SNL”!
So? Whether you like it or not, that stupid show cements images in people’s minds based on the slant they dump out to their millions of viewers.
He isnt going to let their crap stick just because you think sticking fingers in your ears makes them irrelevant and go away.
So in short:
Correlation implies causation, so saith I?
I’m willing to bet that 95% of the people in the audience of the Broadway show “Hamilton” were Clinton supporters, and 95% of Trump’s supporters never even heard of “Hamilton” before this story hit the news. It’s probably a similar breakdown for SNL viewers. This idiocy does nothing for Trump.
“Don’t expect Trump to stop ranting on Twitter”
A. President Trump is simply expressing his thoughts directly to we-the-people, bypassing the Gobellesque reality-distortion field of the dying dinosaur enemedia. Naturally, the enemedia will describe that as “ranting”; however, anyone who actually reads President Trump’s tweets can see they are not rants.
B. I’d be EXTREMELY disappointed if President Trump doesn’t continue to chat directly with we-the-people and continue to cut the dying enemedia out of the loop.
The fascists at their ‘Finest.’ You nailed that!
This means also other Congressional people. Don't go on their shows to get blindsided & belittled. Make them eat cake.
“I’m willing to bet that 95% of the people in the audience of the Broadway show “Hamilton” were Clinton supporters, and 95% of Trump’s supporters never even heard of “Hamilton” before this story hit the news.”
So?
They have now, and now they know that this production is full of left-wingers using it as a platform to push politics instead of some “cool” story about a founding father that they may want to see over Christmas.
All I knew about the show was one clip, that I thought was pretty well done. Almost decided to buy the soundtrack.
Now I wont.
Others will now make sure they dont see it, and those that have tickets are canceling theirs.
But it was best for them to trash Pence, and just pretend like one of the most popular productions in the nation (despite what people on FR may want to believe) doesn’t exist.
If Trump said nothing, then what? A couple of blogs would have picked up on it, and some perfunctory fist-shaking on FR would ALL you have gotten from it.
The cast would have seen that as a huge win, and would have turned it up.
“It’s probably a similar breakdown for SNL viewers. “
People know what SNL is. Only a few dullards on the right like to pretend they have no ratings and that no one watches EVER.
Clips from that show gets millions of views every week.
Awesome: here is why...
1. Bush quit communicating; this makes sure Trump is clear and no one can say that
2. He can talk OVER the media to the people.
3. The media will be less and less needed.
4. Trump can say to the media (or Kellyanne at news conferences), “President Trump already covered that via Twitter; go back and read his message; that is old news, we are not going to cover it again”
5. It makes us feel we get personal treatment, for us, and, it assures us he is on top of things and so forth.
No downside.
Aw c’mon. There are ways to tell someone to go to hell without coming off as a juvenile. Too many on the site believing it was Trump’s brilliance that got him elected. Yes, he was the outsider, campaigned like all get out in the final weeks, and got a lot of “Reagan Democrats” to support him, but Hillary was just about the worst candidate the ‘RATS could run. Many voted against her more than they voted for Trump. You gotta give his campaign staff and the RNC a lot of credit for pulling off the win.
Donald Trump isn't a candidate anymore. He's in office for the next four years unless something dramatic happens. It's time for him to leave the WWE crap behind and stay focused on fulfilling his campaign promises.
“One of the characteristics of a good leader is that he doesn’t give a sh!t what people think about him. “
Says who? A good leader that pretends like his rabid opposition does not exist is a fool.
Do everyone a favor and run for the office yourself and see if that Ned Flanders crap gets you past the first primary.
Says me. And I got it from the people who have been the best leaders in my personal and professional life.
I don't know why you keep saying I should run for office. Trump isn't a candidate anymore. He ran, he won, and every political observer I've seen (from all points along the political spectrum) agrees that he won because he stopped the juvenile bullsh!t and focused on getting his message across to the voters.
P.S. — You’ll find other threads here today describing a “media summit” that Trump is hosting at Trump Tower. The fact that Trump invited NBC to this meeting tells me that he wasn’t terribly bothered by what he saw on Saturday Night Live over the weekend.
“Says me.”
Well that proves something?
“And I got it from the people who have been the best leaders in my personal and professional life. “
Well they are free to run for this office too! They can ignore their opposition and win in a landslide!
Middle management advice =/= political warfare.
“I don’t know why you keep saying I should run for office.”
Because we want to see how the “real deal” does it. If that white glove stuff is wise, then you will definitely put opposition to rest.
“He ran, he won, and every political observer I’ve seen (from all points along the political spectrum) agrees that he won because he stopped the juvenile bullsh!t “
LOL!
Yeah, I’m sure that’s what they all said.
Glad to know all of the pundits that couldn’t get anything right the entire election are the people you still depend on for an accurate breakdown on what did and did not “win” the election.
