Conventional Reality

Guest Post by The Zman

The Republicans kicked off their 2020 convention promising to do a better job than the Democrats in this age of panic driven virtual reality. Instead of disembodied heads floating on screens it would look more like a convention. They even had some people gathering in a physical place in North Carolina. The Democrats tried to make themselves look cool by relying on Zoom sessions for all of their activity. The result was it looked like something a YouTube grifter would put together.

Republican Convention: FINAL DAY

I’ve given some thought to how I would advise Trump today.  Two words:  Be  Likeable.

Most Americans are too goddamned stoopid, or have much much too short of an attention span to be bothered with policy details. And you know what the Greatest Sin is in America these days?  Being boring.

If at the end of the speech people’s take away is “Hey, he ain’t so bad. I like that guy.” — then Donald will have the election all sewn up.

Now, you might say, “Well, all Hillary needs to do is the same thing.”.  Sure, and the only thing keeping frogs from flying are a pair of wings. You see, Hillary CAN’T be likeable to a vast majority of Americans. There isn’t an ounce of femininity, softness, humor, beauty, gentleness, calmness, class, or graciousness about her. She is ugly, old, withered, and angry. There is no record of anyone ever meeting Hillary and walking away saying, “Hey, I like her!”. None. Trust me on that.

So, Donald be like this guy!!  You know the REAL reason why so many people liked Ronald Reagan?  Because he was likeable!

Anyway, post your Day 4 thoughts here.


Stucky Q.O.T.D. — Advice For Donald

Donald makes his acceptance speech on Thursday. 

Q: What strategy and/or message would you give him?

==========================================

Ms Freud and I watched all the theatrical proceedings so far. She is mostly non-politically oriented.  Nevertheless, at POTUS election time she’s almost always voted “D”. Not this time.  She simply can’t stand Hillary.  That being said, she’s not sold on Donald either.  At this point I think she’ll be staying home.

She made a great comment last night while phatfuk Christie was “prosecuting” Hillary.  “This Hillary bashing is getting tiring. Why doesn’t he give me reasons to vote for Trump?”  Brilliant, eh?

I think it’s fair to divide the actual voting electorate into thirds;

— 33% will vote for Cankles no matter what Donald says or Cankles does.

— 33% will vote for Trump no matter what Cankles says or Donald does.

— 33% above are on the fence. This includes true Libertarians and Independents. It also includes both Democrats and Republicans who, so far, are going to sit this one out. This is your target audience.

It’s been a fun and interesting convention to watch so far. What’s not to like about reaming Hillcunt a new vajayjay for four consecutive hours? It’s pure red meat for the Believers.

 

But, enough is enough.  Hopefully, that strategy ends tonight. And if it does not, then Donald is fucking up his chance to bury her. The Unconvinced are getting tired of it.  Donald needs to give the many people such as Ms Freud a REASON(s) to vote FOR him.

Don’t tell all the Ms Freudian types to go read the Republican national platform, or go to Donald’s website, or go digging and searching through endless articles on the internet.  Most people won’t do any of that. They anticipate that 40+ million will watch Donald’s acceptance speech.  The time is NOW … THAT day … a make or break day …. no other day.  So, again, how do you advise Donald?
