Trump Is Masterfully Using Democrats' Opposition against Them
American Thinker.com ^ | January 11, 2020 | Gary Gindler

Posted on 01/11/2020 6:35:09 AM PST by Kaslin

It took the American mass disinformation media and the socialists Democrats three years of Trump's presidency to finally develop a coherent policy of confronting Trump.

This policy is very primitive: everything that Trump does is denied, rejected, and negated. Everything.

As a result, the opposition's reaction began to resemble the reaction of Pavlovian dogs — any statement by Trump, any action by Trump, and any achievement of Trump can cause only one thing — salivation of total negation.

However, the complete and unconditional denial of everything makes the Democrats predictable and, as a result, vulnerable and easily amenable to manipulation and provocation.

The White House probably noticed this a long time ago, and it will certainly take advantage of the thoughtless but predictable denial by the Democrats of absolutely everything for their political purposes.

What does the predictable reaction of the Democrats look like? For example, Trump makes it clear that he is not going to fight in Syria anymore, and without exception, all Democrats immediately become militant hawks, who categorically demand a continuation of the war. If Trump trolls the Iranian regime by threatening to attack Iranian objects, including cultural objects, all Democrats, without exception, immediately become peace doves and demand "hands off Iran!"

The irony here is that the very opponents of Trump, who advocate for "preserving the Iranian cultural heritage," are calling for the destruction of Confederate historical monuments in America.

No doubt, all this (D)egenerative nonsense will be beneficial to Trump during his re-election campaign.

Many TV channels associated with the DNC broadcasted detailed, multi-hour reports on the funeral of the handful of dust that remained from General Soleimani as if it were the funeral of some outstanding American politician. The NBC, MSNBC, and NPR channels, as if by magic, turned into Shiite propaganda channels.

He’s just like his enemies, only smarter. His ‘friends’ won’t stand up for him so he has to do it himself.

From the article:

A) If Kerry had been in the car with Soleimani, no one would have been surprised. No one.

Boy, wouldn't that have been a twofer!

They say it is something he learned from Roy Cohn. If you can get somebody to hate you, you can play them like a yo-yo.

What the mediocre-to-stupid minds of the Democrat Party are too dumb to comprehend is that Donald Trump TOWERS over them intellectually and morally.

President Trump doesn't have a dog, therefore he has no "friends"......

Interesting question. If the destruction of cultural sites is indeed a war crime. When isn’t it a crime if perpetrated domestically?

Democrats sue Iran over right to use "Death to America" as their 2020 campaign slogan!

He re-write their narratives for them and they suddenly find themselves on the wrong side in unfamiliar territory. I’m wondering if they Lefties lost Pelosi on that last one, (”The poetry reading philosopher homicidal maniac) or if that was just being outflanked by McConnell?

Democrats' opposition to ANYTHING Trump — his statements, actions, achievements....
has turned them into Pavlovian dogs w/ drooling tongues hanging out, ready to pounce.

Dr Pelosi trained them well.....Democrats salivate at the mere suggestion of Pres Trump.

I just had a long debate with my brother about Cohn. The left is resurrecting Cohn, dead since 1986, to attack Trump, to claim that Trump learned how to be evil from Cohn.

Question is, are the majority of Americans seeing through all the dishonest chit or believing everything their evil mediaVOMITS and demonKKKrats liars tell them? I wonder..🤔 though it's said that only 29% of Americans are liberals, I guess they didn't take into consideration the socialist illegals roosting in our soil, how many have eaten of the poisonous lying apple 🍏? That is the BIG question!

I still think Nancy will have trouble finding folks willing to be Impeachment Managers - they will gladly sacrifice their own for the cause....as long as they aren’t on the chopping block themselves.

They are like the Mullahs who talk up the “glory of martyrdom” while eschewing the honor themselves...

I’ve been saying from Day One that Trump has been using Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals on the Dems and the media and they have no idea how to handle it.

The democrats are adhering to our enemies. Iran is using their words as propaganda. Sounds like aid and comfort. Oh and they gave them lots and lots of money too.

That is the question, right enough. The polling doesn’t look great for all the stuff Trump is being attacked on. His rating on the economy is excellent though. Last semester the Trump-hate was sparcer than it had been, and it took on a perfunctory vibe, like the Germans in Hogan’s Heroes. I don’t know.

Or, as Sun Tzu famously wrote: "If your enemy is quick to anger, irritate him."
