David Mamet had a famous saying, essentially: …‘in order for genuine liberals to continue their illogical belief systems they have to pretend not to know a lot of things’… By pretending not to know, there is no attachment to any adverse consequences.
In essence, liberalism maintained -in the face of overwhelming empirical evidence- requires feelings to overcome logic in the ongoing game of make believe. Hence, cognitive dissonance is a defining principle as large numbers of people need to be swayed to act against their own best interests.
To retain the larger ruse, Alinsky expanded on (many would say took advantage of) the necessary dissonance and various illogical shell games (system overload) became a component of his modern approach.
We have witnessed some of the most intense distraction shell games being played in the past ten days. Feeling overwhelmed?… that’s by design, not happenstance.
With the Clinton campaign narrative solidly in hand the MSM have been fast-hand shuffling the shells to keep the Trump campaign off balance and the larger electorate distracted. In the current political shell game, logical focus is the enemy. If you know the pea was dropped below the table, you wouldn’t even bother making a guess about location when the shells stop moving.
That’s the back drop for the Fox News debate by master tactician Chris Wallace. Don’t sell him short, his life-skills are fraught with shell game training and ‘pretending not to know‘ those things previously mentioned. Fox News has one goal tomorrow, and we’re about to outline exactly how it plays….
Again, it must be repeated – in the same way the concept of a two-party system in DC is a total ruse, so too is the concept of a left-wing and right-wing corporate media. The DC system is a UniParty system based on mutual benefit; the U.S. Media corporate constructs surround the same principle. One UniParty Corporate Entity. NBC-Universal is no different in their financial wall Street objectives than News-Corp (Fox).
Today Fox News releases another Daron Shaw poll, replete with yet another visible appearance by Daron Shaw on Bill O’Reilly. They just presented a poll, an almost identical poll last Thursday (4 business days ago), so why another on the eve of Wallace’s debate?
It’s all part of the larger corporate agenda. Donald Trump is a pure and genuine existential threat to the entire system. Stunningly so.
Rupert Murdoch (Mr. Wall Street), and Bill Sammon (Fox Political Vice President in charge of debates), have the same objectives/messaging in mind. You only need to elevate yourself to 30,000/ft, disconnect from traditional views, accept the unity MSM objectives, look at their central cast behavior (Baier, O’Reilly, Kelly and Wallace)… and very quickly you can understand what those objectives are.
After the application of the red pill approach, you can accept that Chris Wallace strategically uses the Mamet principle to portray himself as the high-minded deliverer of all things newsworthy.
Anticipate Wallace beginning the debate thusly:
“There has been a lot of noise amid the election coverage with reports of groping, locker room talk, emails, WikiLeaks, investigations and such lately…. but what’s more important to the electorate are the specifics of policy and your skills to lead our nation…. as such, I’m going to ask each of you to stay away from the personal nonsense, drop the controversial gotcha talking points and speak directly to the American electorate”.
Or something similar and equally table clearing.
He’s then going to wonkify the debate, going directly to specific and intensely granular details about policy. This effort will be geared toward aiding the “expert government policy candidate“, Clinton.
Wallace will shroud and protect his (and Murdoch’s) objectives, by claiming the intellectual high-road; all-the-while the goal is to emphasize the low-minded, non intellectual, non-policy specific vulgarian, Trump.
Chris Wallace will use video(s), and visual aides to amplify his approach and contrast how the “intellectual professionals” within the various intellectual policy businesses (think tanks etc.), are diametrically opposed to any disruption in the order of things.
Granular.
Wallaces’ dismissive approach is most effective when it gets granular. • The leadership of Yemen and the U.S. current Red Sea fleet’s position, when contrast with the Saudi Arabian government concerns. • Various wonky global policy leaders and their proposals and individual G-7, G-20 summits and the internals of massive White Paper institute proposals. • Global Warming summits and TTIP (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership), etc. etc. etc. The same domestically.
This approach puts landmines in front of candidates who are not granular in their subject matter interest. Try to go ‘big picture’ and the questioner gains the upper hand by claiming the question is not being answered… etc.
When professional debate teams know the granular approach is coming, they break down their team into specific study areas. With individual candidates it’s much harder, because the wonk is encyclopedic in scope.
Given the nature of the overall current landscape in the past political week, the overwhelming shell game – in combination with the locations and activities of all the known key players, all of the stars align with this MSM strategy; and this dismissive and ridiculing approach is directly in the wheelhouse of an elitist who wants his own place in history, Chris Wallace.
Last year we showed you a presentation by Chris Matthews, another person who has the same elitist skill set as Chris Wallace and who runs in the same circles. This video highlights the liberal media’s need to pretend not to know….
The audience for tomorrows debate is the larger electorate, however, the real audience are the MSM colleagues who are chomping at the bit to begin the stupid vulgarian frenzy.

So petty, she doesn’t have the guts to go Hillary Rodham in public venues, but she still insists on working in HER sir name when she can…to whit, the emails ….in her late 60’s to boot. Oh, it just burns her up to have to use a man’s name…except when it HELPS her!
Personal viciousness towards not just her enemies, but any “little person” who displeases her…..examples abound.
An attitude of superiority and entitlement. (Just heard another one this week….she stole State Dept furniture for her DC condo/townhouse….How many government buildings is she going to loot before she’s done?)
Criminality (even violence) and sexual perversion …..and the channeling of Eleanore Roosevelt/etc, White House seances, etc? If you believe that stuff, as I do, thats witchcraft….How could this woman be any worse?
If I were the Big Guy…..I’d let her get as close to the Presidency as possible, then take it away in spectacular fashion. Perhaps a manifestation of her illnesses in the debate, or worse.
Even if she agreed with me on every point of policy, Hillary Clinton does not deserve to be President of the USA. I know I don’t get to make those decisions, but at least the One who does has my input on the matter.

Never forget that the “earned income credit” that results in many individuals getting paid by the IRS annually, is indeed reparation for staying in the underclass and being a democrat, many with slavery in their family tree. People have come to rely on the EIC so long that they don’t even want a job that pays them more. Take that to the bank!
LikeLiked by 3 people
Of course, instead of trashing people who don’t make enough money…we could be asking “why is it that their pay is so low/the cost of living necessities so high that they rely upon the EIC to pay for their bills or other essential things?”.
For instance, most of the workers in my area do rely on it. Why? Because their jobs don’t cover housing, transportation, food, medical, utilities or they barely do…and that those meager jobs are now cutting benefits, also increasing in price, and hours.
Before you freak about raising the pay — how about it is looked at the other way around: what has happened to the cost of basic necessities in the last 20 years? Noticed the price of milk? Do you know how many gallons of milk dairy farms dumped last year, basically to keep from having an oversupply? Is this efficient? Is this even ethical? And…is it beyond one or two industries doing this? Who is making money off of it?
And if that is the case…then a guaranteed annual income will not solve the poverty problem, because it doesn’t start at that end.
In fact, at this rate, we have inflationary bubbles going on all around us — eventually they will pop and that paper money guaranteed annually will likely buy you one batch of collards and that’s about it. To really fix this for everyone’s sake we need a total reset — a clearly out of the swamp as it were of finances/economy.

From this lead-in, Trump can pivot to any of Crooked Hillary’s scandals and run with it until he gets the inevitable interruption from Chris Wallace — after which Trump should, without missing a beat, continue by rattling off specifics of his own approach and how that approach accords with what Americans want.

The American people are mostly interested in broad policy directions affecting US life, treasure, and security. They’re also extremely interested in what a candidate feels about current policy initiatives and their effectiveness, with suggestions for their improvement or discontinuation.
Major strategic decisions regarding US life or treasure should never be made on national television, least of all within earshot of Mike Wallace.

For Trump to defeat a rigged election, his supporters will have to over flood the polls, in order for Trump to have historical numbers, to make it difficult to cheat. It is easier to cheat when opponent numbers are close.

‘Fox news is not real news’ – the San Francisco city manager got it right. So, the proper nom de plume is ‘Faux news’.
We hardly watch Faux any more. maybe BillO and for sure Hannity. Dobbs is great, Cavuto is OK. The rest are fakes, and simply not worth watching.
The reality of all this is we are finding out how far in scope and intensity is the Illusion of ‘news’. Its 5% fact, and 95% false narrative. You choose which pill you want the. just like in the Matrix movie…you want the blue or the red pill? But, we do have a real power in our hands: We can Vote, and turn off the tv when it is so bad, so slanted and so wrong.
I for one enjoy CTH, Sundance and all the staff. CTH is an oasis in the desert. We are in another ‘Desert Storm’ and we will win the victory. There will be many ‘casualties’ …Fox, CNN, etc, etc, etc, ad naseum.
Most important is the dismantling of the GOP, and the DC Swampland.

Sundance, as a total debate nerd myself I think your analysis and prediction is perfect. This is exactly what we can expect to see tonight. I also expect Wallace to get nasty in tone as well which will irk Trump.
The debate prep you describe is exactly how a team would prep for this. This isn’t a good forum for Trump stylistically. The granular nature of this is more in line with something Cruz or Ron Paul. These are the kind of debates the average American doesn’t want to listen to and is simply fuel for the drive by media to launch attacks with as to Trump’s stupidity, incompetence, lack of readiness, unfitness, lack of experience etc etc.we can expect to hear these criticisms and should ignore them.
The name of the game tonight for Trump is pivot. He should act with humility at some point and say he hopes the people of America will entrust him to do his best for American and vote for him. He’s got to hit Hillarty on Wikileaks and the O’Keefe videos, and he should stress jobs and the economy including Obamacare. Foreign policy will be tough, it always is tricky , but if he stresses Hillary will get us into a war with Russia he will pick up Stein voters and some Johnson & Bernie hold ours.
I personally would love another “that’s because you’d be in jail” type line but can I’ve without it. That line played well with the Bernie and Stein crowd if you look on Twitter so it could help pick up voters. I wouldn’t be surprised I if the three brings up the Trump hotel/condos in Vegas – Trump as an example of jobs building and the struggling NV economy or Hillary/Wallace bringing up union issues.
It’s going to be a historic moment whatever happens. I’m praying for Trump to shine and come out like a champ and for Hillary to be exposed in in all her corrupt ways.
Again, excellent analysis. Thank you for all your work.

I am saddened and sickened when I think of the mob violence perpetrated by and paid for by the DNC, Hillary Clinton’s campaign, and their Bob Creamer operatives against Americans who just wanted to attend Trump rallies. I think of the young blond-haired woman who was spat upon, endured vile sexual taunts, had bottles thrown at her by paid Hillary Clinton supporters in San Jose, California. This woman could have been my daughter. The press blamed Trump supporters for the violence.
The propaganda press, the Democratic Party and the Hillary Clinton campaign are so dark, so corrupt, so violent and have shown that they will do anything to maintain their Globalist domination of the United States. They are unfit to lead our great country.

Remember the alleged Trump supporter who “sucker-punched” the protester. There was absolutely no reason for that guy to do that. He moved from the middle of the row of seats to come out into the aisle to punch him. I always thought that wsa very odd. I even did a little research into it, and still found the story fishy, but with no real proof. Now, I believe he may have been paid by the Super Pac to do that. Foval on the tape said that the ACL-CIO guys would do “anything”.

I think Chris Wallace was selected as the ‘best’ person to moderate the third and final debate to deliver the final coup de grâce to Donald Trump. I can imagine media moguls, along with Hillary Clinton, meeting at some secretive enclave to decide on their choice. The vote was made, and Wallace was ‘in’.
The cogs and wheels of the election process have been altered to remake it into the Clinton Victory Machine. But Pepe, ever at the ready, is waiting in the shadows to dash in at the right moment and throw a monkey wrench into the machine!

One such point Trump has not pushed often enough is the competitive effect of lowering corporate tax rates and allowing companies to repatriate foreign earnings at a discounted rate.
He seemed to have to struggle to get out his comment about competition in health insurance during the last debate. He’s no Milton Friedman, and I don’t expect him to be.
Ignore the minutia and attach Clot. He didn’t play up Clot’s public/private stance well enough in the last debate, which he could use to undermine everything she says, as well as beating her with her own stances. A politician of Clot’s pedigree has taken both sides of every last issue at one point or another. Even if Trump has to guess, he would win statistically to just say “you used to take the opposite stance, and you don’t really mean what you’re saying now”.

Whatcha wanna bet that Chris Wallace (one of the mouthpieces for the status quo) doesn’t suggest in tonight’s debate that the candidates stick to the issues and talk about policy rather than tape recordings and sexual allegations(23 minutes) and leaked emails (seven seconds)?

There is complete news suppression about Project Veritas disclosures. These disclosures show admissions by the SuperPacs (who are in communication with both the DNC and Hillary’s campaign) that they PAID those protesters to incite violence at Trump rallies, and agreed to pay for any medical care if they got hurt and any lawyers if they got arrested. Now, it comes to my mind about that alleged Trump supporter “sucker-punching” that protester. I thought it was odd at the time, and did a little research on the matter and the whole thing smelled fishy. Could it be that this man was a PAID protester, whose lawyer was paid to give him a defense. His case inexplicably has been adjourned to after the election. Further, I am highly suspicious of that woman who was Trump’s ex-employee and who came forward to call him a “sexist” when she knew she had written a prior letter saying the exact opposite. Did she throw all caution to the wind because of a hefty payment made by the Super Pac. Hillary’s campaign has billions of dollars to throw around in this election. Why would she allow herself to look like such a liar, except that she received a handsome payment, and simply did not tell her benefactors about her letter to Trump. All these women’s stories sound very fishy, particularly that plane story. The woman is clearly a lunatic. But now I believe that she is a paid lunatic. I certainly hope that Trump brings up Project Veritas’ findings becasue there is news suppression about this earthshaking news of proven vote rigging and other election crimes coming from the horses’ mouth. It is analagous to an atomic bomb hitting NYC, and the MSM reporting nothing about New York, , except that the weather is dry and sunny.

Then they say….with fake polls. … We are so far ahead Trumpers give up now…. Then they say this is Trumps last chance…… What a beautiful set up. A work of art really…… So now they have Wallace right there to assure Trump is bashed and since it was his last chance it’s over now……Bravo Hillary campaign but most of us are on to this and we need to get it out whats about to happen……

No, they are not worthy of battle. If the MSM reported the news properly, she would have ZERO support, but they are not. O’Keefe, maker of Project Veritas video said that all the networks were going to put it on, but that it was canceled at the last minute. This is earthshaking news that to them is not newsworthy. There is something desperaely wrong with the media, and it does not concern their love of Hillary. I believe that the security agencies are also sending “strategic communications” to the media to bash Trump and promote Hillary. I believe this because it was reported tha the security agencies are “confirming” the Russian hacking story that everyone knows is absolutely false. According to Assange, it is NOT the Russians, and I believe him, and not the “strategic communications” from the security agencies. They are covering up something very big and they cannot afford to have Trump come in because he just may expose it all. They do not trust him to keep silent about something very, very important to these very creepy and corrupt people.
