I know a drug addicted prostitute who works in front of my Chase Bank branch. She told me how Trump could lose....
Boyd’s theory is all about speed. If you have handlers, you can only go so fast. I think Trump is unique in his abilty to react instantly. Cruz is almost as good. Rubio needs to check with his bosses.
I have been observing on this forum for months about how Donald Trump is operating inside of everyone’s (Media included) OODA Loops.
This nitwit finally figured it out, but is trying to use it to promote his favorite politicians.
Frankly, I don’t think any of the current crop of politicians or media pukes really understand the concept of the OODA Loop and as mostly effete, liberal scum, would look down their noses at any philosophy developed by a mere military person.
I believe that Donald Trump will continue to use the OODA Loop to confound all of his opponents on his way to the Oval Office. In the end, the conventional wisdom pukes will not understand what happened, other than that “the people had a temper tantrum”.
Is it’s name “Khent”?
>> he is already exhibiting symptoms of precisely the flaws that Boyd saw as fatal in combatants
The author is assuming, without supporting his assumption, that running for the Republican nomination is exactly like combat.
That’s a logical fallacy, because while vying for nomination has things in common with combat, it’s not at all the same thing.
Put up a senator and watch Hillary walk away with the vote ... one term senator and outsider ... wasn’t that the meme in 2012? Doing it again is a surefire way to elect the Clintons and begin the American experience with totalitarianism with its attendant one party system.
Agreed. I believe Trump’s strength is an ability to recognize when to act, even as it isn’t obvious to other observers. He also knows he cannot possess all knowledge and would place the highest caliber operatives in their best positions to advise and to succeed. Toward that, he is adept at cutting ties to poor performers and wouldn’t hesitate to replace failing subordinates.
Rubio will just give us the same old same old garbage that we have been getting for the last 27 years, no thanks!
Long article full of wishful thinking by an arm chair strategist who doesn’t like Trump. Trump has all ready shows he can close his loop. When the trial balloon attacks on Cruz so spectacularly failed, he immediately pivoted away from them.
Contrast that with the author’s idol Rubio who doubled down on his failed NO SHOW strategy last week by failing to show up, again, for the Omnibus Budget Bill vote.
BLAH BLAH BLAH... you wish.. GO TRUMP!
The Author misses the mark here because the driving forces behind participation are existential, not casual.
The Donald wants to close the borders and deport the criminals. Let’s absorb those we can through the melting pot and throw the hell out, those we can’t.
Trump supporters want this and understand the imperative.
The GOPe doesn’t give a Shiite.
That’s why OODA analysis and nearly every other analysis fails.
We are SICK TO DEATH of the GOPers, the Bushies, the Lindseys, the Marcos and all the rest of the “Ruling Class”.
To paraphrase, “Bomb the Shiite out of ‘em” suits me just fine.
Did he harrumph first?
For your interest.
I should trademark “it’s all over for Trump”
Yeah, I remember reading how McCain, the fighter pilot, was in Obama’s Ooda loop. That didn’t pan out, either.
Also by the same author.

“When the trial balloon attacks on Cruz so spectacularly failed, he immediately pivoted away from them.”
1. Cruz attacked first.
2. Trump then barely started flexing his muscles.
3. Cruz put up a music video, signaling that he didn’t want to go to war with the Donald.
I see nothing “spectacular” about any of these events.
