David Cay Johnston idea.
Last edited Thu Aug 1, 2019, 03:37 PM - Edit history (1)

The opportunity is to mock Trump, which will goad him into ever more crazy behavior. In turn, that will eat away at the facade that got him into the White House.


What does he mean exactly? We need examples. Got any?

...A smarter strategy? Stop playing Donald’s game. Stop being reactive. Start making Trump play your game. Instead, learn to be political entrepreneurs—see a need and fill it...

1. Throw everything right back at him ...

call him mocking names, call out every stupid statement or tweet he makes. Fight him with his own tactics. Look how Moscow Mitch took off. Mitch sure doesn't like it. trump can be Dopey Don, Dumpy Don etc. He won't be able to take it.

Wasn't that the genius idea of the "Baby Trump" balloon? That Trump has such a fragile ego that one sight of it would drive Trump bat@#$% crazy? It's been tried 3 times, twice in London, once in WashDC, and ............. nothing.

How many freaking times will DU-grade Progs recycle this dumb idea before they admit it's a failure?

From W'pedia's article about him:

Quote
In late-2016 Johnston founded DCReport, an online journal covering the president's administration and congress.

On March 14, 2017, Johnston released a portion of Donald Trump's 2005 Form 1040 tax return which, he states, he received anonymously in the mail.

Leave it to the Democrat Party to take childish behavior to a new level.  Maybe Barack Hussein Obama will step in and try to encourage some level of civility.

Whew!  Crisis averted!  I’m thankful David stepped in to clarify. There for a minute I was afraid the DUmmies were going to figure out Trump’s secret destruct button.

Could you just imagine the impact 1,000,000,000 DU members could have if they suddenly stopped referring to Trump as ‘President Trump’??  What if they started calling him vile names?  The damage could have been too much to contain.

Trump's Search and Destroy tweets are driving the left insane, granted a short trip.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I was in DC Independence Week.  I saw the big Baby Trump Balloon, and small mylar BTBs were being carried though I didn't see a source.

The one and only comment I heard was "don't they know we think it's cute?  Maybe we should start carrying them."
