it works because they have actual power now, power that he can't do anything to counter.
I mean this is probably the only tactic that would work
you can't harm him by saying shit about him. Calling him a racist or sexist is massively retarded because it doesn't and hasn't worked to discredit him at all. Excluding actual legal matters and his effectiveness he's untouchable.
Trying to argue with him is pointless because he won't shut the fuck up unless he gets what he wants
And then there's trying to discredit him directly. Look at how many people said he'd never would be president and were wrong.
if you however ignore him and treat him as the dumbass that he is then you actually can gain some traction against him. He works on negative attention and it's helped him more than anything.
Worked for Mueller, if we're being honest.
“Simply being anti-Trump isn’t enough to win the Democratic nomination and won’t be enough to win” in 2020, said Guy Cecil, chairman of Democratic super PAC Priorities USA Action.“Democrats need to tell their own story and share a forward-looking vision for where they want to take the country.”
Where was this mentality when we needed it back in 2016?
In Bernie's campaign.
Being ignored is the one thing narcs can't stand.
Should've done this three years ago. I can't count the number of times I walked past a television and it was CNN broadcasting Trump's latest gaffe.
If they had learned this lesson earlier, and hadn't given him all the free advertising and campaign exposure as he could've ever wished for, we might be in a very different position today.
The Presidency needs to be cut down a notch. Not just trump, but the office of the president. We've guaranteed that anyone in the office is to be respected, regardless of whether or not they earned it.
I guess the only way to deal with a manchild is by treating him like a child.
More power to them. I hope it occurred to them that at this point caving in to his demands will likely result in the shutdown not ending. Because he seems childish and spiteful enough to do so.
I think it’s still important to report on the damage he’s causing, but not directly acknowledge him beyond that.
Democrats prevent cutting down their IQ by trying this new one weird trick. Trump hates them!
At the same time, I'm worried about what he does if we do ignore him. It's long been proven online that "don't feed the troll" simply doesn't work if the troll is motivated enough, and sometimes the only remedy truly is a direct boot up the ass.
If Trump sees that mommy is ignoring him throwing around the fine china, what's to stop him from taking that as carte blanche to set fire to the drapes?
If he goes nuts, can't they just invoke the 25th amendment?
That needs the Cabinet which is full of Trumpsters
And it took them this long to figure it out, too.
It's not a strategy that would've worked before
Imagine being so fucking braindead to not realize that saying "Drumpf is a plumpf" and being a part of the "resistance" aren't fruitful election strategies.
