Do you believe President Trump will actually get the wall built? And if he does what will happen?
The effectiveness of this man in seizing the imagination of the public and literally dictating at what and for how long it will focus its attention is astounding.The wall, and the Muslim bans, and all the obnoxious and disgusting public behavior, is distraction—flash, dazzle, noise, and movement—so disparate and varied, and changing so rapidly and frequently, to produce total collective cognitive overload.In that condition the victim (America) cannot think clearly enough to see and understand what is actually important (the pocket being picked, the bank being robbed) for all the noise and commotion (the tweets, the wall).Cognitive overload is the key here.And Other Ways Our Intuitions Deceive UsHow pickpockets trick your mindIt's one of the oldest crooked MO’s in the world, but the degree and variety of jaw-droppingly open brazenness, vulgarity, and outright bald-faced mendacity has never before been seen in this context (a American national political election and now governance).We are used to, and tend to be on our guard against, the car salesman who tries to distract us from the fine print and the price switch by focusing on a few consistently discussed seemingly plausible details and pleasant small talk during the document signing.We have never yet seen a car salesman who attempts the same thing by unexpectedly jumping up and down on the desk, unzipping his fly and peeing on competitor’s sales literature, making fart sounds with his armpit, hitting on your wife, and bragging how completely he has cheated other customers.The reason we never have the second auto buying experience is that no salesman has ever thought it would work. And until now no presidential candidate has ever imagined this strategy could succeed in politics.Well, it does work, and it is working.Stop focusing on the wall (and the tariffs and the lies about crowd size). Dont look where the hands are pointing, look at what the hands are actually doing.
What is your take on this unbelievable act of arrogant hateful insult to dead children?
Mohamed Benalel Merah the father of the Jihad inspired killer who murdered 3 school children,3 soldiers and one school teacher is bringing a legal case claiming his son Mohamed Merah was killed by persons unknown.This Islamic sadist filmed the shootings and glorified in his actions.He admitted to police he killed these people and was shot dead while shooting at the police team. Now the legal people representing Merah senior are asking why so many police where on duty that day.For the reports I read the killer gave the police little option to shoot him,so he can be called a martyr for Allah. I think this father is cynical money grabber and willing to hurt the families of his sons victims and commit his own form of Jihad.He and his supporters should be deported,who would want low life's like this in their country,detain and deport,what are others opinion on this disgrace.
