(8,804 posts)Launching psyops against Trump to really make him freak out on twitter.
What we really need is Hillary to start sending him tweets five times a day........or alternate days with Nancy Pelosi.....LOL
The higher we can get his BP, the better, he'll have an aneurysm some morning sitting on the crapper tweeting.

(3,624 posts)Bloomberg's ads are razor sharp. Trump's reactions are, well, reactive and impulsive and not nearly as effective. I don't want Bloomie as our candidate or President but I love that he's putting all this money into fucking over Trump.

(53,410 posts)you need to remember that every one of those added clips show Trump being a bully in front of the world. On camera, in our faces, surrounded by his MAGATs, and Bragging about his own meanness.

As i said in the previous post, I'm quite fine with Bloomberg laying the wood on Trump almost daily and I think it'll be an effective strategy.

(11,517 posts)IMO that clip will get the attention of more Americans than anything else. Once people begin to understand the level to which tRump descends to bully people they'll start questioning how anybody could support such a person.

(6,831 posts)in which he openly mocked Carly Fiorina's looks. But especially where he mocked John McCain (Love him or hate him) who was a certified war hero. Like fat fuck trumpie could survive years of torture in a POW camp.
But, I'll bet Bloomberg is just getting started.

(9,865 posts).....having a bully in the WH is exactly what his voters wanted. They are thrilled when he talks to people the way he does and wish they had the nerve to do it too.
His supporters are the bullies.
So I'm not sure how this AD really works subliminally. Maybe it speaks to White Suburban women who voted for Trump last time. ????

(34,360 posts)And Biff is strangely silent, too. They're scared. I've got problems with Bloomberg, but I'm loving that somebody is hitting that thing where it hurts--his colossal ego and despicable behavior. That thing's cult might love the bullying, but folks in the burbs don't and folks like them are going to swing the election, not the die-hard cult.
I love New Yorkers.

(6,974 posts)Michael Dukakis & John Kerry both have sort of admitted that they should have fought back against the Willie Horton et al slime ads and against those swift-boating/lies ads that were heaped on top of them by Lee Atwater & other GOP campaign hacks/liars. The GOP is now behind tRumputin their leader and is the party of putin who don't CARE about outside countries helping them to retain the presidency--hell, all 3 branches of government--and in too many instances we now have a corporate media whose helping the party of putin ("But Her emails!," proclaimed Mrs. Greenspan 🙄 ). So, hell yes Dems better start fighting back and landing some effective body blows or ELSE. There are no 'good' Party of putin people. They've sold their souls to tRumputin & ru$$ia.
Even in defeat, I'd rather go down fighting/biting/clawing like HELL than with a whimper.

Once again, read Eric Hobsbawn's Bandits if you want to understand Trump's supporters and how to peel them away from their Pseudo-Robin Hood.
