Re: ** The Trump Thread SAFE SPACE ** (NO Personal Attacks; NO Trolling)
I just finished watching "Get Me Roger Stone" on Netflix. A couple of thoughts. First, you should watch it if you want some background on how Trump got elected. Second, what I find amazing is that Stone willingly participates in this documentary even though he KNOWS that it'll paint him in a bad light. A couple of times he acknowledges the cameras following him and says "liberal filmmakers are taping me etc." but he doesn't care and is candid with the producers.
I find this interesting and important because I believe Stone, as a political operative, KNOWS that this documentary won't hurt the Trump movement. He KNOWS that the people watching this documentary already don't like him and Trump. He KNOWS that the people that were hoodwinked, bamboozled, run amok, and led astray by Trump (and by proxy Stone) WILL NOT watch the documentary. He knows this because he's been pulling strings for 35 years. He is an evil genius in that sense. His participation in the documentary is him laughing at non-supporters and him taking a calculated risk to become more famous all at the same time. He is doing it just to infuriate people who already dislike Trump.
It's sad for America. But it is what it is.
