...Another reason, as I have tried to express on the board for many months now, is the constant bullying and the complete lack tolerance for any alternate view...
Just like how those flat-earthers are bullied. It's so mean to be so intolerant of such nonsense!! On the other hand, someone who constantly interprets being disagreed with as being bullied just sounds like they want
their intolerance to be tolerated.

In very simple terms, disruptive innovation takes place when a company, service, or product outperforms or is more affordable than current options, after going through changes. It seems quite clear that Trump is pursuing a form of Disruptive innovation strategy to enhance government efficiency, as evidenced by his latest cabinet selections. He isn't depending on experienced government employees who have a deeper understanding of the system than he does. He is appointing loyalists who will enable him to exert considerable influence across all government departments.
His objective is to examine every nook and cranny of the government, reduce the workforce by half, optimize the operations of each branch, and enhance overall productivity...
That's such an over-reach. Trump doesn't even have any of those words in his vocabulary, let alone the ability to formulate a plan around those concepts.
I genuinely believed Kamala would emerge victorious. I certainly didn't anticipate that the election would result in a decisive victory for Trump. However, my political disagreement with him does not imply that he is an idiot, as many people tend to depict. By continuing to portray him in this manner, we are allowing him to succeed. It’s hard for me to grasp that many Democrats fail to see that portraying Trump as foolish only enhances his ability to counter their arguments. Our primary objective should be to serve the American people rather than solely focusing on stopping Donald Trump.
If the goal is to engage in political discourse, we ought to aim to persuade others that Trump is among the most astute business figures in history, establishing a standard so elevated that it becomes unattainable for him. However, it seems we have established such a low standard for Trump that, in the perception of most Americans, he is incapable of making any mistakes at this point. Do you understand that?
I am truly astonished that the Democrat strategists thought lowering the bar for Trump would yield positive results for us! Trump desires that Democrats depict him as foolish. He desires for the Democrats to place him at the forefront of their focus. He seeks free air time from Democrats that portrays him in a negative light. It's an elaborate psychological game that he's mastering! We label him as foolish, and from the perspective of the American electorate, he continues to demonstrate that the Democrats are mistaken, as the expectations have been significantly diminished. It's becoming somewhat unsettling how frequently Democrats continue to discuss Trump. Trump and his flamboyant style are designed to capture as much airtime as mainstream media will permit.
It’s hard to recall the last occasion I tuned into liberal cable news without Trump being the focal point of discussion. We cannot persuade American voters that our agenda deserves their support if our focus remains solely on discrediting Trump. He’s not foolish. Calling him that may feel relieving, but it doesn't reflect the truth. We need to reflect the truth.
