How about we just publicly shame them by asking if they can answer a question honestly- like this Gold Star Father did to Chairman Rep McClintock-Can Donald Trump pass a background check that a sponsor of a refugee child would get? Cspan caught it. https://www.c-span.org/video/?540118-1/hhs-secretary-testifies-refugee-resettlement
I knew all along the answer was to pay the man no attention; attention is what he thrives on, regardless of his ludicrous mouth.
Every time I turned to MSNBC, CNN, PBS and saw them cover his rallies—it was clear to me we were going down Trump’s rabbit hole trap.
Fvck them.
Death Valley Days gave Reagan a platform, and set him up for lavish media attention during his run. The Apprentice did the same for Trump. Once in the spotlight, the media kept him there. Neither ‘played the press’. They represent both ends of the corporate move to undo the Roosevelt doctrine.
The media made Trump & continues to sanewash him while putting insane demands on both Clinton &Harris, zero demands on Trump. Trump clearly has senile dementia while Biden is aging normally, but got hounded out of office. If we end up totalitarian ruled, mainstream media will be the key instrument.
Yes! You're correct. We'd all be so much better off if we could collectively take a few steps back and breathe deep before reacting to anything he does or says. We've all been participating in the crazy dance with him for 9 years.
I agree, however, there is also a possibility that at some time he will follow through, just to see what would happen. Full tariffs like he talks about would eventually hurt his base... He knows he can't go through with it.
I can't stand to see him or hear his voice. I'm going out to my garden soon. GIVE HIM NO ATTENTION, but stay vigilant. His retribution is coming and we will ALL suffer.
This is the key to it all ! I like to imagine they all go back under the rocks they crawled from , zero reaction , zero response to any attempts made to engage with me . Stop feeding the monster and the monster will starve
Yeeeessssss!!! Listening to your podcast lately, I saw you moving this way. I was hopeful this would be your conclusion. Now get everyone else on it. Let’s stop clutching pearls at announcements and word vomit. Focus on what he IS doing. He wants you to focus on the outrage while they scheme.
This comes under the "no shit sherlock" rule of WTF how stupid was the media?! depriving him of oxygen has been the only move for 8 years, this is not a new theory. The MSM is complicit because the horror is good for business....let's see how that works for them now.
Agree with JVL, Trump has been playing this game since the beginning and still the media bite. The tariff crap is to distract from his nominations and it's working.
Narcissists thrive on attention! Deplete him of it and he shrivels into nothing! Media will never learn! All these cabinet picks was meant to garner media attention & y’all fell for it! He won again! He farts & it’s breaking news! Try reporting on his actions & not what he says! He says a lot of BS
I agree mostly but people need to be aware of the danger to at least get rid of the worst of the worst. Gaetz is gone because public outrage was too strong. Exposing how bad the Cabinet picks are needs to be done.
Furthermore, apply the same logic to his minions. On another site, I’ve disengaged with the magas I know. When I check out their posts there is no engagement until someone with a brain steps into the fray. Ignore, it drives them nuts.
As much as I hate to say it, we need to let Trump fail to beat him. The last time, there were those in place to hide memos and slow walk his derangement, but this time, he'll have a well lubricated machine with Project 2025 sycophants in place.

We're in prevent defense / run out the clock mode here.
Dude has 2 years of power before a very probable blue wave.
Just nod, pat them on the head, and ask them why Trump isn't doing what he said he'd do.

I do not think that word means what you think it does
No fearmongering for me.
However bad you think the next 4 years will be, they will be far worse
We have learned nothing
