Thanks for your kind reply.

You triggered a conjecture . . . what would I do if I led the Q-Team in terms of focus groups? I doubt they are using focus groups.

I suspect they are more likely to use NSA and other solidly based actuarial research--wouldn't have to be a REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLE that way--could be literally considering THE GENERAL POPULATION AS A WHOLE on a lot of issues--kind of like Scandinavia.

They could have a team of psychologists and another team of sociologists and another team of anthropologists and a combo of the leaders of those teams contributing answers to queries of WHAT IF'S from the Q-Team.

Orrrrrrrr, less functional, imho, but still workable ... they could sequester a range of military members in proportions representative of the general population on a range of traits, habits, values etc. and then use that group as a focus group in a deeply sequestered setting. I doubt they are doing that.

My best guess is that they are using teams of social science professionals to give input to the Q-team from very extensive and high level research--broad and deep research from decades long--particularly the last year or 2.

Orrrrrrrrrr, the Q-Team and Trump are using some such input from some such experts but mostly are going with their gut, intuition, spiritual sense etc. and maybe even some authentic Christian prophetic types. For some reason, I doubt that's exactly it, either. I think that would be Trump's inclination but given the stakes, the military types might be more inclined to lean on inputs from experts than go by the seat of their pants.

Then there are the military GAMES experiments that have a long history. They could have been playing tons of such games for many months with lots of data from that bunch of stuff.

I continue to be amazed at their impressive successes one after another. I call that evidence of God's wisdom and knowledge being injected into Trump directly and the Q-Team directly and maybe indirectly.

Time will tell.

Wow. So much info in what you said. I’ll be responding in sections!!!
Wow.

But I have to say that focus groups are almost a pet peeve of mine. I don’t like them. If I was in one I’d be wiggling all the time.

So much depends on the charisma of the person running the group. Or, the lack of leadership. Or, how much pizza someone had the night before.

ARGH

I probably just don’t get them, but whenever they are trotted out on TV to take the temperature of an issue, I cringe.

Can you say manipulation? Lights! Camera! Action!

(Yes, once in a while a nugget rises to the surface.)

Given the secrecy they have been able to maintain, the people Q consults must all be NSA or military intelligence. I'm sure they have the breadth of expertise they need, so "no outside comms".
