Scott gives Pres. Trump an F persuasion grade on the wall and border crime issues. Now you can spin that in strange ways with word salad to maintain your delusion about Scott trying to gain power from the Right by criticizing the Left.https://twitter.com/ScottAdamsSays/status/1102584929441837056 …

Does he stand to build his brand more quickly by being 100% critical of the Left, or by being able to show that some small percentage of the time he's critical of the Right too?

Good spin! Maybe some suckers will actually buy it.

I believe in testing perspective clarity by checking prediction ability and skin in the game. Feel free to share any predictions you have on Trump or Scott and the extent of your SITG (such as money bet on them) and I'll track them. Adding emotion like ffs doesn't persuade me.

Is that how the hypnotist asks (or suggests or persuades) you to measure how earnest he is? Sounds reasonable! Count me in!

How earnest? Odd yardstick. I don't see any predictions yet. Anything else at this point is a waste of your breath.

You don't want to know whether Adams is more likely to tell the empric truth or manipulate you to his own ends? That's not important? Here's my prediction: Adams will continue to risk his newspaper audience to boost his social media following.

If you mean he will continue to do Periscopes and comment on politics despite having lost newspaper audience, that's a super safe bet I agree with that doesn't require any great foresight, as he has already indicated that he will multiple times himself. ...

Amazing. He's convinced his fan base that it's a risky financial move in this day and age to throw away a liberal newspaper audience for a greater social media following.

The newspaper audience is not at risk. But my overall income is down 30-40% because of talking about persuasion in politics.

And you honestly don't expect to gain money, influence or social audience from that short-term loss in the long run?
