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.

On October 11th a rather odd political memo appeared on the internet seeming to describe a democrat political/operational outline for Pennsylvania congressional district PA-08 (Bucks County and surrounding).

The memo itself was so over-the-top, almost everyone (including us) disregarded it. A keen political observer would notice immediately the construct of the memo seemed to reflect a strategy we have described for years as “the bathtub principle“.

The “bathtub principle” is essentially:  How do you hide the damage from a broken fish tank from your landlord?… bust the water pipe on the bathtub.

How do you hide extremist political operations?… flood the media cycle with over-the-top stories of fake extremist operations. etc…

Sharyl Attkisson described something similar in the following tweet:

TEXAS – Fort Worth police say a man accused of kidnapping a six-year-old girl from her home also raped her before she was found.
Police say Edis Moya Alas kidnapped the girl Saturday from her home in southeast Fort Worth. The girl’s father said he noticed the front door was open and the girl was gone about 5 a.m.
Officers say Moya’s relationship to the girl is still unclear and he is not cooperating with the investigation.
Searchers began looking for the girl since she went missing Saturday. She was discovered eight hours later when a man heard screams coming from a wooded area.

A few days ago we were relating an analogy of Boston circa 1774 to the current political insurgency movement supported by candidate Donald Trump.  At the time of that writing we certainly did not expect to see evidence so quickly of support for such a framework.
Yet, here we are.

A stunning moment occurs outside a building in New York City belonging to, and representative of, a single political force that strikes fear into the well constructed political corruption surrounding our modern body politic.
Yes, here they are, assembled – and no one had to call them together.  The authentic Modern Sons and Daughters of Liberty, in all their deplorable, vulgarian and oh-so-American glory just knew what to do.
Quite remarkable.  Completely authentic.
It is almost as if the voices of our liberty founding were calling us back to assemble outside a Boston tavern…

Rebekah and Robert Mercer reply:
…“If Mr. Trump had told Billy Bush, whoever that is, earlier this year that he was for open borders, open trade, and executive actions in pursuit of gun control, we would certainly be rethinking our support for him.
If he had admitted to Mr. Bush that he had profited privately by allowing the sale to Russia of 20% of US uranium deposits or that he had amassed his personal fortune not by hard work in the private sector but by selling favors to foreigners on the American taxpayers’ dime, we would certainly be rethinking our support for him.
If he had argued that he needed both a public and a private position on issues facing the American public, we would certainly be rethinking our support for him. And finally if Trump had serially terrorized and silenced the victims of violent sexual assault whom he feared could damage his political career, we would most definitely be rethinking our support for him.

The attacks against the Donald Trump candidacy will not stop.  The various constructs of the professional political class, the UniParty, Wall Street, DC, K-Street and the entire apparatus of the corporate media complex have no alternative.

Donald Trump will always remain as the existential threat to their entire financial and ideological construct.
Those who oppose Donald Trump’s candidacy are holding a no retreat position.  There is no middle ground.  If Hillary Clinton is defeated, all those mentioned entities lose.  There are trillions of dollars at stake.  The entire life’s work of major leftist organizations will be destroyed.  It really is that simple.
If you are waiting for all of those oppositional forces to stop lying, scheming, falsifying, manipulating and gaslighting – stop waiting; they will never cease.  Period.

Throughout his adult life Donald Trump has been asked, almost continuously, if he would ever consider running for President.

Watch the journey that ends with a question...

….Do you want to see the United States become a winner?

I seem to remember a political candidate discussing this issue a few weeks ago. Previously candidate Donald Trump stated he would revoke visa privileges from any country who refused to accept repatriated U.S. deportations. Makes sense. Now this…
EL CAJON, Calif. — US authorities tried twice to deport the unarmed black man fatally shot by police in El Cajon, California, but his native Uganda refused to take him.

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Thursday in a statement to the Associated Press that Alfred Olango stopped reporting to officers in February 2015.  Spokeswoman Virginia Kice didn’t know if officers tried to find him after that. (more…)

This should be interesting. Very interesting. I’m curious to see if Alicia Stanley’s story is included. After all, she was Trayvon’s actual mother. If there’s a book tour, I might have to go ask Fruit and Candy some questions…

(STORY HERE)

This has to be the worst campaign vetting in the history of failed campaign vetting… Or the most horrible exploitation, Clintonian level exploitation, of a very troubled woman…. You decide.

Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton’s entire campaign narrative is now centered around, and vested in, using a former Miss Venezuela, Alicia Machado, as an attack surrogate against Donald Trump.
Hillary Clinton’s campaign goal is to paint Donald Trump as anti-woman, and fat-shaming, because the Miss Universe pageant owner told Machado she needed to lose the 50+ lbs she gained after winning the 1996 beauty pageant title.

Yeah, it does sound silly.  Hillary Clinton is trying to hit Donald Trump for being critical/judgmental of beauty,… in a beauty pageant,… which he owned,… and was therefore the stakeholder in the brand image of the beauty pageant Machado won.
Huh?  Yeah, but if that wasn’t silly enough, hold on. It gets really bizarre.
After finishing her one-year-term as ’96 Miss Universe, Alicia Machado first turned to a life of crime – including being the getaway driver for her boyfriend during the murder of his brother-in-law.  A few weeks later Ms. Machado was accused of threatening the judge who was in charge of convicting her boyfriend.
