Why the Media’s Disinformation campaign against Trump isn’t working

Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” main strategy to persuade is the smear. Not facts. That’s why the left labels every idea they don’t like “Racist” whether it is or not, because the association subconsciously persuades the public to reject the idea.

THE BIG LIE told often enough is believed true by the public:

When smear is 24/7 directed at a person, smearing every statement or appearance, or associating “smearable” organizations, people or ideas to the person, that person’s public persona will be assassinated.

Finished publicly.

The left has faithfully followed Saul Alinsky’s strategy of the smear, and while it has served to throw them into a mass delusion of epic proportions about Trump, its failing as a strategy to bring him down.

And the reason why is simple. Trump is a Master Persuader. For example, his latest tweet he can pardon himself. While Progressives in Media etc pounce thinking to destroy Trump smearing him as all sorts of evil, in the “third dimension” Trump is appearing as the Most important man of the Day. The constant talk about his tweet, associates Trump with Leadership and Power. So he rises in the polls, much to the chagrin of his enemies.

Its Hilarious. The Tide is definitely turning, the days of the mass delusion are nearing its end. There is a point where the reality Trump is still standing, will explode the balloon of mob hysteria. They will be total befuddled, and collapse into passivity waiting for someone to explain it to them. How could it be.

You are confusing ‘smear’ with ‘truth’.

Who the hell is this Saul Alinsky guy wingnut Trumpers keep bringing up anyway?

I’ve talked to a lot of liberals and have never once seen his name mentioned.

But wingnuts and Trumpers? Every other day they blame something on him.

Lets test your statement. Trump is smeared as a racist. Copy paste here the racist things Trump has said. As he is president, list the Democrat like Jim Crow Executive Orders he has issued.

“Black guys counting my money! I hate it. … I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks.”

“I think sometimes a black may think they don’t have an advantage or this and that. I’ve said on one occasion, even about myself, if I were starting off today, I would love to be a well-educated black, because I really believe they do have an actual advantage.”

Judge can’t be fair because he has mexican heritage - interview too long to quote.

n June 2017, Trump said 15,000 recent immigrants from Haiti “all have AIDS” and that 40,000 Nigerians, once seeing the United States, would never “go back to their huts” in Africa.

twitter:
An ‘extremely credible source’ has called my office and told me that @BarackObama’s birth certificate is a fraud.

Trump falsely claimed that President Obama “issued a statement for Kwanzaa but failed to issue one for Christmas.”

Just out report: “United Kingdom crime rises 13% annually amid spread of Radical Islamic terror.” Not good, we must keep America safe!

He called Puerto Ricans who criticized his administration’s response to Hurricane Maria “politically motivated ingrates.”

retweeting a white nationalist:

"@WhiteGenocideTM: @realDonaldTrump Poor Jeb. I could’ve sworn I saw him outside Trump Tower the other day! https://twitter.com/WhiteGenocideTM/status/690560137040400384/photo/1pic.twitter.com/e5uLRubqla "

I hope you don’t have any unrealistic expectations that Alfie will actually acknowledge any racism in those quotes.

He called some of those who marched alongside white supremacists in Charlottesville, Va., last August “very fine people.”

After David Duke, the former leader of the Ku Klux Klan, endorsed him, Trump was reluctant to disavow Duke even when asked directly on television.

Trump endorsed and campaigned for Roy Moore, the Alabama Senate candidate who spoke positively about slavery and who called for an African-American Muslim member of Congress not to be seated because of his religion.

In the 1990s, Trump took out advertisements alleging that the “Mohawk Indian record of criminal activity is well documented.” At the time, he was fighting competition for his casino business.

“I think I might have more Indian blood than a lot of the so-called Indians that are trying to open up the reservations.”

Trump once referred to a Hispanic Miss Universe as “Miss Housekeeping.”

At a June 2016 campaign rally, Trump pointed to one attendee and said: “Oh, look at my African-American over here. Look at him.”

Trump worshipers are really starting to make me laugh.

Your entire post illustrates perfectly what Trump does on a daily basis. Seriously. He smears, he lies, he uses pressure to manipulate small minded folks…

If you like Trump, BAC, you must love you sum Alinsky.

Compare and contrast

“That’s just how white folks will do you. It wasn’t merely the cruelty involved; I was learning that black people could be mean and then some. It was a particular brand of arrogance, an obtuseness in otherwise sane people that brought forth our bitter laughter. It was as if whites didn’t know they were being cruel in the first place. Or at least thought you deserved of their scorn.”
― Barack Obama, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance

SENATOR OBAMA

But she is a typical white person who, you know, if she sees somebody on the street that she doesn’t know, you know, there’s a reaction that’s been bred into our experiences that don’t go away and that sometimes come out in the wrong way.

Hillary Clinton

I love this quote. It’s from Mahatma Gandhi. He ran a gas station down in St. Louis for a couple of years. Mr. Gandhi, do you still go to the gas station?”

Bill Clinton in reference to Obama

“A few years ago, this guy would have been getting us coffee.”

Oh and member Hillary and Deblasio’s super fun skit, about colored people time?

Should I move on to Joe Biden?

But other than that…

Not racist. The first quote is unfortunate, not racist. Its a stereo type many have, yet they would never do racist acts against someone else. Blacks have lots of stereo types about honkys, white interlopers, etc…rappers use them all the time. No one is charging them with racism.

Not racist. Second quote is acknowledging reality. Blacks are slaves, they are overpriviledged Americans, quotas put them above other races in many areas. They definitely have advantages.

Not racist. Strategy. The judge was about to rule on when he would have a trial, if before the election it could hurt Trump. After, Ok. By insinuating his bias, the Judge was compelled to rule in Trump’s favor and schedule it after the election.

Not Racist: Persuasion strategy, details make ideas boring and unpersuasive. And if you came from a hut in Africa (like the one Obama’s brother lives in Kenya), but came to America living large on the public dole, you wouldn’t go back to your hut either. No one would. Therefore, not racist.

Not racist. Its is a fraud. The PDF file Obama released is layered, digitally redone. If it was the original, it wouldn’t be layered.

Not Racist: No doubt a joke, Trump humor.

Not Racist. True even if the percentages are off. Radical Islamists have made UK unsafe in many neighborhoods.

Not Racist: Political. You have a right to respond to attacks.

Not Racist: Trump’s a busy guy, making a mistake retweeting only proves he made a mistake.

Good times, good times.

That’s the movie you see, not the one actually playing. Its called Cognitive Dissonance. Confirming your reply is a hallucination fabricated so you could repel the threat to your delusion, is the hyperbole about Trump’s daily activities, and personal smear against me.

Classic Cognitive Dissonance.

Not one black living today has ever been a slave. But they are overpriviledged Americans just like the rest of us.

The world knows we are overpriviledge and the swarm here trying to get in.

We Americans are swarming the border to get out.

But if the left manages to take over, they will destroy America just as they do everywhere else, then there won’t be anywhere we can flee.

Not one black living today has ever been a slave. They are over privileged Americans just like the rest of us.

The world knows we are over privileged, that’s why they swarm our borders trying to get in.

We Americans are NOT swarming the border to get out, are we?

But if the left manages to take over, they will destroy America just like they did everywhere else, then we won’t have anywhere to flee.

Is that a Pelosi giggle fit?

Am I worried I revealed Trump’s secret weapon? No, the media has repeated the BIG LIE so often they are thoroughly delusional. They will never see Trump as a Master Persuader, they can only see their caricature of him.

Mass delusions in history run their course. They loose the ability to convert new believers, the repeated failure of absurdity of the delusion stops its spread. But those completely deceived, most of them grow old and die.
