I would bow and say “I see”
The next three weeks leading up to the election will be filled with the media defending a lying fake Indian, a washed up D list porn star, and a sleazy, money-grubbing lawyer. H/T Bill Mitchell. Reminding normal Americans what it is the want to get away from.
Is that about right?
Every time Trump says something particularly inflammatory, he does it to control the media:
1. To change their focus2. To take oxygen from an opponent's messaging so it happens in an empty room
3. To take the light and heat off something happening behind the scenes that needs quiet to resolve
4. To split his opponent's energy into different areas and dissipate it with no impact.
He is a zen master. It is purposeful. Ask his opponents.
