Donald Trump’s new White House Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller, said the Republican Party is “more popular than ever,” just days after voters handed Democrats control of the House and Senate the midterm elections.
Miller said in his speech that it was “the privilege of a lifetime to join President Trump,” before adding: “If it wasn’t for President Trump, the United States of America would not exist right now.”
“This man saved America,” Miller said. “He saved our military from collapse, he saved our economy from destruction, he saved our border from annihilation and he saved our country from threats at home and abroad which would have been the end of the American dream forever.”
When you’re using public news as the channel to convince daddy you’re a good boy.
What more would you expect from Pee Wee Himmler?
Their experience the last decade or so has been that they can talk anything into existence. Because we let them.
In other news water is dry
So we’re full-on in the Kim Jung Un-style masturbatory lies without even resembling reality stage? Fun.
Trump does that for … I don’t know, probably all his life. He always spun everything however fits his narrative and unfortunately it seems to work more often than not. Telling people what they want to hear seems exceedingly successful.
I’ve genuinely never seen so much sychophantic behavior in my life than the people surrounding this demented president.
The reincarnated Joseph Goebbels spewing more shit out of his mouth.
This cretin has 4 kids btw… How fucked up they must be to have this piece of shit as their father
His wife is vicious and insane as well: the kids got a double helping.
I wish I were joking, but I am not.
She’s just as dirty as Temu Goebbels, and she does it all staying out of the limelight. Another horrible human being.
Wooooow. Had to clear the cobwebs and dust to read this old magic. Neato!
My back hurts
And the knees
Colonoscopy time
I’m going to say it right here, they’re going to perform a red wedding scenario in congress in January.
One of the theories is they are going to just declare the representatives / senators from the left as National security threats and refuse to seat them… We’ll see. I’m not ready to declare this over.
I’m failing to see what constitutionally creative idea that would entail but you’re right not to led the guard down against treason.
They’ve already shown rule of law and the constitution does not matter to them.
How would you even try to parody this?
But wait, there’s more!
Misinformation? Delusion? Blind stupidity?
Who can tell?He’s going to keep saying obvious and attention grabbing lies like this.
Because quietly he’s going to do horrible shit he doesn’t want anyone to notice.
This has been the strategy all along according to Steve Bannon

The memo – called, simply enough, “A Plan For Putting the GOP on TV News” – is included in a 318-page cache of documents detailing [Roger] Ailes’ work for both the Nixon and George H.W. Bush administrations that we obtained from the Nixon and Bush presidential libraries. Through his firms REA Productions and Ailes Communications, Inc., Ailes served as paid consultant to both presidents in the 1970s and 1990s, offering detailed and shrewd advice ranging from what ties to wear to how to keep the pressure up on Saddam Hussein in the run-up to the first Gulf War.
The memo explains why television was the way to go:
Today television news is watched more often than people read newspapers, than people listen to the radio, than people read or gather any other form of communication. The reason: People are lazy. With television you just sit—watch—listen. The thinking is done for you.

Ailes started Fox News because Nixon had to resign after Watergate. They figured if they could create their own news and talk about whatever they wanted, their voters would think what they were told to think.
Then in the 90s the oligarchs bought the only other options, and one of the first things the Clintons and Biden did was take a chainsaw to telecommunication regulations…
Don’t fucking give credit to Bannon like he has a masterful insight. This was obvious and in plain sight, the literal memo saying they were gonna do it entered into Nixon’s presidential library, and even more updates from HW’s
It’s the main reason Trump will likely never have one and is paranoid about flushing memos down toilets.
The big reason it’s going so poorly is the plan was for someone like Jeb to be in office. trump just inserted himself into an existing plan like a cuckoo egg.
All super fucking obvious
My philosophy has always been “don’t listen to that guy“, but I suppose we really should’ve been listening to that guy, because he’s been broadcasting the Trump strategy for over 10 years
What a fucking pile of shit that guy is
I despise the guy but he will flat out state their plan and nobody seems to pay attention. He detailed their plan for claiming 2020 was stolen before the election. It’s no wonder he chose prison over testifying
Every time they say something outrageous, you get a tiny hit of dopamine from the outrage. After a while, you subconsciously crave it. This is why people like gossip magazines and stuff. The more you crave it, the lower the threshold of how believable it has to be for you to accept it. This is how you get sucked into the misinformation machine and this is how maga got conned into it in the first place, fox news did this expertly. This is the main reason you shouldn’t pay attention to the outrageous distractions.
It’s not dopamine…
An amygdala going off feels great, it’s why people like getting scared and being dangerous.
The more it goes off, the larger it grows, the more it goes off. It is a feedback loop.
But that’s still not what’s going on here.
fox news did this expertly.
I already have a different reply explaining how fox news connects, but again you’re off.
“Oh, but this order does not come from me. It comes from the President. He signed it this morning.”
Love me Dungeon Soup
