HOW'D YOU LIKE IT?

@realDonaldTrump is limbering up. He spent his first term Sun Tzu-ing your soft little bottoms.

Today was a taste of what's coming.
I loved the way your munchkins wailed, "THAT'S NOT TRUE!"

How could he SAY such dreadful things about us?

You fell into Trump's major trap.

He let you foam at the mouth his whole first term. And now you can't turn up the intensity.
This is what Trump did for his first term.
You stupid arrogant imbeciles always refused to admit that Trump is a man of staggering intellect.

And no you get to pay.

All those little gobbling, screeching, low-T "men" and shrieking harridans go into Trump's political ads.
Have you noticed that Trump now completely dismisses stupid questions?

What are you going to do about it?

You've already been at full volume. Everything you say has been said a million times.

The only dynamic element is Trump. You people are ossified.
Very few people understand the secret of long-term success.

Trump understands it.

That secret is to be eternally hip. Undated.

Trump is far more modern than people a third his age.
Remember Terminator 2: Judgement Day?
My brother and I went to see it in the theater.

I walked out after 15 minutes.

My brother stayed just to see how bad it was.

And I LOVED the first Terminator. I've never seen any of the others.
The franchise became totally ossified.

Arrogant.

Trump understands that an entertainer--and that's what he is--must EARN the support of the audience.

As an entertainer, you must assume NOTHING. You aren't entitled to success.
AND.

When you become a successful entertainer, you must keep working as hard as you ever did in order to maintain that success.

Almost nobody can do it.

Anymore.
But some entertainers can.

Gene Hackman.

Maybe the greatest actor of all time.
The older he got, the more hip he became.

He was not conventionally handsome, he had a strange tenor voice, and he wasn't particularly fit.

And he worked for decades. His range was unbelievable.
Hackman was so good that he made everyone else in the movie good.

Tom Cruise's best performance is in The Firm. He's perfect.

Trump makes all his allies give their best performances.

So what about the mainstream media?
Did everybody see THIS?
Trump's ads will be savage.

What will the press do?

Rave as usual.

Trump will change. All his enemies will stay the same.

With change comes victory.
Valerie Jarrett wrote a funny Tweet about how Obama would've handled the pandemic much better than Trump.

Let's look at how Obama handled training the Iraqis.

BPC = Build Partner Capacity
A&A = Advise and Assist

https://media.defense.gov/2015/Sep/30/2001714172/-1/-1/1/DODIG-2015-177.pdf
Do you know what that means?

Obama was demanding that the military clear TACTICAL TRAINING PROGRAMS WITH HIM.

A community organizer.

What does he know about military tactics?
Pure insanity.

Now let's look at Trump.

The Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) created, trained, and armed more terrorist organizations on the planet.

They created the Taliban in 1994.
For decades, the West begged Pakistan to stop.

They refused.

On April 13, 2017, the US dropped a GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast (MOAB) on "Islamic State tunnels" in Afghanistan.
Here's the MOAB.

Isn't it BEAUTIFUL?
Look at the name of the weapon:

Massive Ordnance AIR BLAST.

It's used on SURFACE targets.

So what were the surface targets?
"The impact of the bomb was so huge that it blew up at least 500 Pakistanis and an equal number of IS operatives."
We killed the entire ISI Covert Action Division, the ones who train and arm terrorists.

Pakistan is not monolithic.

The Islamists were backed by powerful outside forces. But with the most dangerous government Islamists dead, now Pakistan can move forward.
It's the same with Russia.

Deir Ezzor, Syria. February 7, 2018.

We destroyed an entire Russian Mobile Detachment Combat Group of 600+ men.

It suffered 100 percent casualties. ALL were killed or wounded.
And now Putin is no longer interfering.

The deal with Obama and Valerie Jarrett is that they are crippled by unknown unknowns.

Things they don't know that they DON'T KNOW they don't know.

They are unaware of their own ignorance.

Just like the press.
I would say that the Washington Press Corps has about an eighth-grade level of knowledge.

You can tell by the questions they ask.

They didn't know that Gavin Newsom of California is following the CDC guidelines for preventing another wave of COVID-19.
See, when it comes to doing as the CDC and the feds ask, Newsom is following instructions to the letter.

He's done such a good job that he's freed up multiple resources.

Governors like Newsom are making people think there was never a threat.
Did you know that intensive-care unit (ICU) nurses have a massive level of burnout?

This is because Level 1 patients require a nurse 24 hours a day.

COVID-19 didn't put very many people into the ICU. But the small number of people would've destroyed the medical system.
We had an ICU doctor shortage BEFORE COVID-19.

Without these draconian mitigation efforts, we would've lost the country.

Of course Trump could have admitted that. People are STILL hoarding toilet paper. They're insane.

It's true: People can't handle the truth.
Brian Stelter of CNN proudly curls up under his sheets and sobs like a 12-year-old girl.

Imagine if Trump had leveled with us.

In my city, millennials and Gen Z lost their minds. They were doing 120 miles per hour on surface streets, blowing red lights.
On the other side, they think Trump "was fooled."

Trump said today that we know more about Iran than Iran does.

You know what he's talking about?

A centralized absolutist state get's so bogged down in micromanagement that they miss the big picture.
Today an idiot reporter asked Trump if he'll change the US Navy rules of engagement.

The US Navy has STANDING ORDERS TO DEFEND ITSELF.

Trump's tweet was a rabbit for the press to chase.

This is child's play for Trump.
Don't make the mistake of thinking Trump doesn't know what he's doing on all levels, all the time.

He just got us through the worst crisis in our history.

And he didn't even break a sweat.

You think an ELECTION is a problem for him?

Please.
All is well.

Carry on.
