    Jeet Heer Retweeted Ivor Tossell

    I think this is right on the dangers of this new tape to Trump: it's one thing to support an anti-system politician as he breaks the rules to hurt your enemies, another thing to think he's doing so against you. But it could be people are too dug in.https://twitter.com/ivortossell/status/1303795818512736256 …

    Granted that nothing matters, I don’t know that Trump people will love this. His schtick is, he’s a showman winkingly letting his fans in on the act, as he manipulates media and makes the libs cry, etc. Now he’s flipped the script, making his fans the dupes.

        That...would almost be enough to swing Michigan in 2016, fwiw. Only need .04% more to move

        Yeah, there's a large % who def seem too dug in, would take too much of an intellectual/emotional awakening to realize how scammed they've been.

        I’ve always thought Trumps secret weapon was he said the quiet parts loud and just said stuff that would have ruined other politicians if it was on tape. Let’s see if seeing what he really sees as the quiet part on secret tapes changes the result

        I also think the sudden attempt to attack Biden from 'the left' (Greenwald retweets, the phrase 'military-industrial complex') may have a similar effect

        The 'deep state' stuff is vague enough to mean whatever, but once you actually start using specific terms, it could possibly throw off not just your enemies but your base - especially if they've always associated the phrase 'military-industrial complex' with America hating pinkos

        the problem is that there is no reasonable alternative that people can rally behind

        People are too dug in. There are just 50+ days to election. Almost every single person has picked a side And the majority will vote against Trump (like 2016) and he will lose (also Electoral College) What happens next is the thing.....that is new for the US

        I think we underestimate how many on his side really agree that the virus is “overblown” because people dying is the way life is and we can’t change our way of life for that.
