calimary's JournalHey, that's not bad!
Let's not forget that: "they can't believe what they're finding!"
Yeah? Maybe because they never found ANYTHING that could prove what trump claimed was true.
Unbelievable? Yeah? YOURE the one who is unbelievable - as in NOT believable, donald. Because YOU LIE ALL THE TIME!!!!!
Seems like there's no comparison to me.
Awww... trouble in paradise?
Yep. No kidding.
Yep. Al Franken.
My husband said that after he heard she ended her campaign.
I certainly wont ever forget.
And if only somebody - some columnist or talking head
or other media figure would just pick up the framing: ... the guy who lies all the time. That should be the remark that ends every observation, every on-camera spiel, every statement and/or messaging effort.
Thats a point that needs to be out there, everywhere, repeated umpteen times every quarter-hour. Pound it in, over and over and over again. Til its thoroughly implanted.
So we ALWAYS make sure to return the favor. In spades.
The infamous Roy Cohn told him to fight, always. Attack, always. And when they hit you, hit them back ten times as hard.
Look at his track record of behavior - maybe just since his candidacy began, which is when this life-long behavior pattern stepped up onto center stage for the whole country to see (if not the whole world). He used to be a curiosity. Human frippery. Another silly media gadfly from the Big Town. Kind of a low-level attention-hungry clown in a business suit. An amusement. Reality-Show Guy. On the Kardashian level. A buffoon. Someone you never took seriously - mainly because you never had to. He was a freakin carnival attraction, for Petes sake. An entertainment/entertainer. A freak. A relatively well-dressed Midtown Manhattan freak. I keep thinking back to Network, one of my all-time favorite movies. There was a line in there spoken by Peter Finch as the anchorman/social phenomenon: were in the boredom-killing business! The Donald sure was.
Until he stepped outside those parameters. He took that VERY public escalator ride - downward (in EVERY sense of the word) to the main floor level which in any building is where most people can be found, or gather. Quite a metaphor there. Up on the mezzanine level where he was STRICTLY pop culture and therefore relatively harmless. Above the dirty scrappy hardball fray on the main floor where anybody can enter and everybody has immediate access.
Nobody took him that seriously back then. You werent supposed to. He was a joke. A late-night comedians punchline. A cheap pop-culture sugar-high who did cameo appearances on comedy blockbusters like Home Alone. A famous-for-being-famous figure whose clown suit was a business suit. He had even developed his own signature schtick. Until he changed and audaciously expanded his brand.
Seems to me we have to look at this strategically and analytically. Know your enemy. Especially since hes pretty sure he knows you.
Okay. So how do we twist that around so it works for us? kkkarl rove made his reputation by attacking an opponent at his/her strengths. And nobody ever granted donald any exclusive rights to that Roy Cohn advice.
Just some thoughts to kick around.
Yes. Where is the Pope? Why haven't we heard from Pope Francis?
We need his voice speaking out on this, too.
Yep. If they stand by this, their "pro-life" position goes straight down the crapper.
You DONT get to call yourself pro-life if you stand for this.
You just DONT.
