All you Sun-Tzu narcissists, read this and understand. We're losing and need a change of strategy NOW.
>I hope that the failure in Tulsa will be a wakeup call to Trump, and that in these few remaining months, he will do something to make up for his failures. People will tolerate a lot from a leader. What they will not tolerate is weakness. Trump’s responses to these manufactured crises has shown weakness, and his weakness was on full display Saturday night when no one bothered to show up to see him, after he’d claimed that a million people wanted in.
>Understand: if he’d been leading a campaign against Black Lives Matter for the last month, that stadium would have been overflowing. There would have been hundreds of thousands of people outside the stadium, standing with the leader against the enemy.
>Because this speaks to a fundamental part of the human brain, this black uprising. It feels, on the most basic human level, that we are being overwhelmed by a foreign enemy. The people want to rally. In many ways, Trump has been handed a populist revolution on a golden platter, and he’s denying it.
>Nero had the support of the peasants, but when the elite rose an army against him, he failed to rally the peasants to defend him, and he was overthrown. He fled to the country, where he was too cowardly to kill himself, forcing a subordinate to do it for him. Trump is looking forward to a repeat of this. If he doesn’t get the situation under control, and rally the people to him, he’s not even going to be able to be in Washington come the election. He’ll be hiding out in Mar-a-Lago, as the enemy rallies in Washington.
>This can be turned around. But it’s going to be very difficult, and he needs to start it immediately. He needs to understand that the same people who are saying he’s going to win by a landslide told him there were a million people coming to this Tulsa rally.
