It’s certainly frustrating to watch a pack of reeking leftist scumbags declare a portion of an American city an “autonomous zone” – what is it with Democrats and their secession fetish? – but do not get frustrated because Donald Trump has not sent the 101st Airborne in to powerwash the human grunge from Seattle’s feces-bedecked streets.
That’s what the Democrats want. And Trump – a better strategic thinker than all the media geniuses, hack politicians, and Afghan War-losing generals who cry about him – is not only not going to give them the victory they crave. He’s going to jam their cheesy plan down their throats.
The libs’ plan to win in November corresponds to Trump’s plan to crush them yet again. Skeptical? Consider this. In the five years since he rode down that escalator bringin’ hell with him, how many times have they come at Trump and won? Zero. He’s spent half a decade on the edge of doom and he’s still here. Why would you think that the walls are suddenly closing in now? You shouldn’t.
Let’s understand the strategic scenario. The long-term strategic objective of the leftists is to turn the United States into Venezuela, and they want to be Maduro. The major strategic objective that will put them in position to do so is victory in the November elections. Everything happening right now is part of their overall strategy to achieve that objective. But what kind of operation are they using to achieve that objective? There are two types of operations relevant here – kinetic and information. A kinetic operation is actual warfare. It’s violence designed to defeat the enemy and cause his surrender by either physically destroying him or occupying his territory and compelling surrender. An information operation is designed to affect the perceptions, and thereby the actions, of the target. Kinetic ops tend to do something to the enemy; and info op tends to get the target to do something to himself.
Elections are usually information operations. They attempt to build a narrative and play on perceptions and cause the target to take the action that will lead to victory. That is, get the target (the electorate) vote for the candidate the info operator wants elected.
Okay, so what is the 2020 elections, with the rioting, vandalism, violence and occupations?
This still an information operation, not a kinetic one.
They want to convince us we are powerless, that everyone else supports their commie agenda, that we cannot win. Their tactics are designed to create that impression and crush our morale. These include the 24/7 media hype, the outright media lies, the movie stars with their dumb PSAs, the staged statue attacks, the corporate solidarity proclamations, the social media cancellations, and the craven kneeling by people who are supposed to stand up for us. But another tactic, familiar to any student of insurgencies, is to provoke an overreaction by those in power in order to undermine its moral authority. They want is to make us (including the president) think this is a kinetic operation, and get our side to make fundamental strategic errors by failing to recognize the true nature of the threat. They hope that such a mismatch between perception and reality will then lead to gravely damaging blunders. One of those would be Trump succumbing to his legit frustration and sending in a bunch of federal troops to crack skulls in Seattle.
Defining this insurgency as a kinetic operation supports the leftists’ information operation goal of making Americans perceive the situation as out of control, of there being chaos, and of making the election of Grandpa Badfinger being the only thing that will resolve the situation. But there is no kinetic situation to resolve – at least none that is strategically significant in a kinetic sense. Despite the hype, the protests may have involved a peak of 2 million people across the country – out of 330 million. That’s nothing kinetically; it’s significant informationally because it is pushed by so many cultural influencers. The scurvy scumbags of Antifa hold essentially no ground except the turf they are physically standing on at the moment, and that is minuscule. Even the hilarious Road Warrior Republic of Seattle is not even a rounding error of a rounding error in terms of US territory. It’s significant only in the context of an information operation.
Many of us cons are furious that Trump is “doing nothing.” This is the wrong thing to think. Trump is only doing nothing if this is a kinetic operation; because this is an information operation, not going kinetic (sending in the troops) is doing something. And in fact, Trump is employing the law enforcement component of his kinetic assets by having the feds wait and arrest Antifa types after the protests end, and hitting them with hardcore federal rioting-related charges. Previously, they would get ticketed and released; now, looking at a five-to-ten stretch, the lawyers their daddies hired to get these sunshine anarchists out of their beefs are going to be advising them to roll over so they can start back up at Cornell in September and not at Leavenworth.
Trump can and should let Seattle’s problem be Seattle’s problem. A small-scale riot in a peripheral city known for coffee, drizzle, and droning, garbage music is the very definition of a local problem. Why would Trump interject himself into it and relieve the mayor and governor of the consequences of their failure to keep order? Why would he stop them from showing the electorate exactly what the reeking cesspool they could expect after Gropey Joe defunds the police looks like?
Scumbagistan is a giant zit on the face of liberalism, and why should Trump pop it? He’s letting it fester for all of us to see – and winning the information war.
Understand that the leftist establishment would like nothing better than for Trump to go kinetic. That’s why it is baiting him, and hoping that those of us who are sick of these Lil’ Red Guards will pressure him into dropping in the paratroopers to bust some heads and – oh please, oh please, oh please – get caught on video Kent Stating up a batch of fresh new martyrs. Trump’s too smart for that, and frankly the establishment is too dumb and undisciplined to carry it out. The media shot its wad on the hyperbolic reaction to clearing out the park in front of the White House, demonstrating that even the most gentle and restrained of kinetic actions was going to get transmogrified into Hitler’s blitz across the Low Countries. And those generals screwed-up too, bad. They should have waited to wring their hands over Trump’s violent and dangerous employment of the military until he actually violently and dangerously employed the military. A bunch of allegedly (but not actually) neutral and nonpartisan military figures with heaps of establishment street cred coming down on POTUS in the wake of a bloodbath could have had a devastating political effect, but they pulled the trigger too early. Mattis and Milley and the rest of the medal men we’re supposed to think are superb strategic operators, but who still haven’t won the war against a pack of turbaned banditos after about 20 years, screwed-up yet again. They were supposed to deliver an info op kill shot to define Trump to the masses as a bloody tyrant and instead got just one news cycle of play with the Twitter blue checks. The only casualty was not Trump’s rep, but their own credibility with anyone outside of the Beltway.
Right now, the American people are seeing chaos. But chaos does not necessarily play against Trump in the long term. Biden is trapped, trying to nuance his unsteady carcass through the conflict between the Democrats’ “’Defund the Police’ means ‘Reform the Police’” faction and the “No, ‘Defund the Police’ really means ‘Defund the Police’” faction. All the while, Trump is tweeting “LAW AND ORDER!”
Do you think this is all helping the Dems? If you do, stop watching MSNBCNN. Except among Hollywood jerks, urban hipsters and whiny woke wine women from Westchester, the attack on order means “Advantage: Trump.” You can see the results if you look behind the media curtain. Remember how the media had a collective panty-wetting over the meaningless Georgia primary and the GOP’s alleged voter suppression? Did you wonder why the media felt it was such a big deal? The answer is in the actual results, which you did not hear about if you listen to the garbage mainstream media. Trump, who had the nomination sewn up, crushed Biden and the rest of the Dems combined in votes. Wait, didn’t all the smart people tell us that Georgia, under the carb-curious leadership of Governor Stacy Abrams, was turning blue?
Yeah, right.
Trump is winning this information battle. Conservative Americans – and moderate Americans who want law and order – can’t wait to vote against defunding the police, rioting and appeasement. The Silent Majority is being roused again.
Indeed, Lot was stronger or at least looked like he had a stronger leadership than Abraham, but look what happened with Lot’s choice of Soddom. The tenacity of the argument of the convinced in God eventually gets recognized as prevailing. Call it strategy, it is what it is.
There is a final confrontation, a camp of people who soon will drop the mask of words like community and show their true colors, which is a bunch of sodomites who have no respect for strangers, discussions, let alone community, vs havens of actual care and peacefulness in red states.
Who in their right mind wants to live in blue area except degenerates at this point? For sure, the reluctant sheep is often the most informative and valuable, however the event horizon of this black hole of evil at Soddom was that the strangers that came to see Lot were not respected nor welcome for their valuable intel information from abroad and heaven, but the seeking of their “flesh” was meant to blot out such concerns, to disrespect information and to out them down in submission, no one caring.
Obama is that disgusting soddomite who promulgates ignorance and hypocrisy through sodomy. Truly dark people.
“The president just called for Colin Kaepernick to get another shot at the NFL. Hahaha!”
Golden!
It’s pretty Kinetic to the people who were robbed and beaten. However, it is the Governor and Mayor who are directly accountable, and they are calling it LOVE.
Hopefully the Feds will be arresting some of these goons soon. This also is reminiscent of a typical CIA type Operation Phoenix/insurgency tactic - the goons must have been reading the manuals/books.
Yes, there are real victims out there ... but they’re not victims of anyone but those who are causing the harm, and those who are responsible for stopping it. And the President ain’t the one responsible for stopping it.
Pawns, easily saxriced. Easter was cancelledunder a Republicanprez, the good guys on the supreme court just ruled the words spoken by Jesus affirming creation and God blessed maarriage is criminal. We are truly going the way of the Roman empire as a #mobocracy
Kind of puts the plnko commie geeks in a bit of a pickle, doesn’t it? 🤪
Why would you have a picture of the late
Shirley Hemphill here. She was a
hilarious comedienne (I saw her in person)
and nothing like the disgusting Abrams.
The leftist politicians, leftist media, and their paramilitary group antifa are executing and information warfare against the entirety of the United States to gain power through an election.
Do not let thisnhappen, folks. Go vote and get others to vote for President Trump.

Post 2- That summary nails it down. It must have been written by a former kindergarten teacher.
Excellent Kurt Schlichter. Nailed it.
"The confrontation was not created by the police; the confrontation was created by the people who charged the police.
Gentlemen, let's get the thing straight, once and for all.
The policeman isn't there to create disorder; the policeman is there to PRESERVE DISORDER."

trump is pushing him out on the field (after a 4 year layoff) only to watch him fail.
kaepenick will prove he can't hack it anymore (CK - contact frank thomas "the big hurt" to get a gig job on TV).
ends the controversy
profound
And he will fail BIGLY.
Agree.
It sure doesn't seem like "Trump Is Winning It" to me.
I guess we have 3-D chess all over again. Perhaps we could add some "BOOMS!" and "TICK TOCKS!" into the mix.
And someone should tell him that a leader should never, ever make threats that you do not act upon.
I guess the guy who was forced to defend himself with a firearm after being attacked by a mob, and who is now facing criminal charges, should take solace in the fact that some "non-kinetic" actions are being taken.....somewhere.
Fear does not rule the “non-prison” society. So, the more criminal acts the democratic funding front (well identified now as ActBlue) commit, the more they are exposed as lawless and needing....incarceration and more appropriate “kinetic” action as their actions present deadly bodily harm and the destruction of livelihoods.
The media cannot write or produce a narrative that would support this, not even to the lowly worker who needs the jobs these Eurotrash financed Communists are destroying, and screaming in our faces that “their rights” take precedence over everyone elses. Game over— never true. Desperation is setting in.
When we play, it will be for keeps. Not symbolism. Milley comes off as a typical obamaumao pussy. He looks scared, chalk faced and staring— and he is inarticulate. How about an update, Milley on the massive anti-drug (and thus highly political) military operation that is cutting off the dope these street morons have to have (and the prices are going up)?
Game, set, Trump.

I love this! From now on, it’s “game, set, Trump”!
So people actually losing their businesses and property to arson and looting, getting assaulted and even getting killed by the rioters is “information operation” and not “kinetic”. Got it. Just collateral damage.
For my part, I cannot presume what the president’s plans are, but there are very real victims right now and there should not be more.
I’m no legal expert but...can’t these people sue their local government for lack of support. I mean your taxes pay for at the very least, minimal protection of life and liberty, I mean they pay property taxes. Simply setting CHAZ adrift is malfeasance on the part of their government. Sue them.
