President Trump just gave ISIS its new name: Losers. (Short for Evil Losers).
If you think thats no big deal, youre wrong. Its a big deal. This is literally weapons-grade persuasion from the most powerful Master Persuader of our time.
As I have taught you in this blog, President Trumps clever nicknames for people are not random. They are deeply engineered for visual impact and future confirmation bias.
In this case, the visuals will be provided by future terror attacks. That reinforces the evil part, obviously. But more importantly, the Losers will be doing nothing but losing on the battlefield from now until annihilation. They are surrounded, and the clock is ticking. Oh, and the press isnt allowed to watch the final battles. In other words, we wont need to build new holding cells on Guantanamo Bay this time. No press means no prisoners, if you know what I mean. (American soldiers wont be shooting the prisoners. We have allies for that sort of thing.)
As you know, annihilation of the Losers in Loserdom wont stop the losers ideas from spreading. You still have to kill the ideas. And that takes persuasion, not bullets. President Trump just mapped out the persuasion solution: Evil Losers.

So far, they are up 22 unanswered points on us since yesterday.
Ribbons, name calling, hashtags, candlelight vigils, teddy bears and avatar changes do not count as an actual response, but rather only as emotional masturbation.
Sweet; needs to be repeated until even the MSM can’t stop the lexicon.
Our response should be in the 10MT range.
We stand in absolute solidarity with the people of the United Kingdom, Trump said. So many young beautiful, innocent people living and enjoying their lives murdered by evil losers in life.
I wont call them monsters because they would like that term. They would think thats a great name. I will call them, from now on, losers, because thats what they are. They are losers. And we will have more of them. But they are losers, just remember that.
Our society can have no tolerance for this continuation of bloodshed, we cannot stand a moment longer for the slaughter of innocent people. And in todays attack it was mostly innocent children. The terrorists and extremists and those who give them aid and comfort must be driven out from our society for ever.”
Meanwhile, Schumer. Pelosi, Mad Maxine and the $orea$$ owned mediots are still hollering Russia/Russia and Impeach Trump!
Yep, and I am tired of waiting.
If they want to play with bombs, then lets show them how it’s done.
Trump is building and maintaning his pace despite the unprecedented opposition. The Media and crybaby’s have been in full meltdown. At some point it will end. I hope that day we see a huge Parking Lot in the Middle East with Trump giving the groundbreaking speech.
Debating whether I should send this to a colleague on the other side of the partition, who I overheard this morning criticizing Trump for calling ISIS losers. She harped that it was “childish.”

Why not just make a Monetary DOnation to ISIS in her name and give her the receipt, Framed, so she can proudly proclaim her submission to Islam???
He has a periscope up of Trump’s SA trip. He talks at length of how having Ivanka on the trip was so persuasive. He really has good insight on things.
ISIS is the modern day equivalent of the Thugee cult.
The ISIS cult needs exterminating.
For those who may not be aware of it, the term loser (or losers) has a special significance for Muslims. It is used throughout the Koran (Quran) to refer to persons who come to disaster because of their disobedient or evil actions and/or incur the wrath of Allah.

So Trump calling them evil losers has a sting that the term terrorist doesn’t.
“name calling... do not count as an actual response, but rather only as emotional masturbation.”
Trump is fighting an ideology through branding. The article explains its effectiveness. Your gutter talk does not change that.
President George H. W. Bush did this masterfully by mispronouncing Saddam Hussein’s name in all of his speeches during Gulf War I.
Yeah I still call cankles crooked Hillary. In fact we named our couch Hillary because it has a crooked lean to it.
As of yesterday, the score is 22 to 0.
I’m pretty sure that they don’t care what he calls them.
It’s time for fire.
And “emotional masturbation” isn’t “gutter talk”, snowflake.
Maybe if I had said “emotional jerking off” or emotional circle jerking”, you might have a point, but I didn’t, so you don’t.
So you didn’t actually read what Adams was saying. He is NOT talking about the people already in ISIS. He is, however saying that those names given out by DJT are very effective, in this case in recruitment. You may want to read or listen to his stuff. He brings up many interesting points.
I often like Scott Adam’s stuff...he’s kinda apolitical and what he admires about Trump is this “master of persuation”
for a cartoonist he has a sharp mind,but then consider Dilbert has just a few frames to get a story line by you can see that you would have to have a sharp mind. Anyway, great post thanks for posting!
Oh yeah? What’s our next move? Flip them the middle finger?
Name calling is all swell, but we aren’t dealing with Low Energy Jeb and Little Marco here.
I think their recruitment numbers will drop just fine when their innards are spread all over the desert.
I’m not interested in talk.
I don’t need to hear another damned word on the subject.
Up 22 unanswered points?
How many “points” did we score in Raqqa and Mosul in the last 24hrs?
500+.
