@TheAtlantic shows you how easily leftists are led around by the nose.
Like little kids.
@realDonaldTrump understands that leftism relies 100 percent on visual and rhetorical symbolism. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/06/trump-looks-like-loser/613363/

"The Night Trump Stopped Trying."
Obviously nine-year-old David A. Graham @GrahamDavidA missed Trump's actual speech.

ALL TRUMP HAS TO DO IS SEND A TWEET OR MAKE A GESTURE OR UNDO HIS TIE, AND THE PRESS WRITES HIM OFF.
I love watching it.
I'd seen the photos, but I didn't know the context.

"Wow. He looks like he just beat the absolute hell out of someone."
First the first time, he reminded me of one of my favorite actors, a man as totally misunderstood as Trump himself.
A lot of you will already know who I'm talking about.

John Wayne did his last interview with Barbara Walters.
She said the stupidest thing I've ever heard:

I'M a film critic.
Wayne was a brilliant actor.
He acted almost entirely with his eyes.

Wayne was a brilliant actor.
He acted almost entirely with his eyes.
He was UNIQUE among his generation of male actors for showing raw emotion.
Wayne's brilliance was in CHANGING ALMOST NOTHING as he switched from one emotion to its polar opposite.
It can't be taught.
He knew his art PERFECTLY.

And when I saw the photos of Trump, I IMMEDIATELY thought of The Quiet Man.
A must-see for anyone with a brain.
Wayne after beating the hell out of someone.

"The night Trump stopped trying."
In fact it was the night Trump signaled that he was going to win.
The same MORONS who don't get John Wayne don't get Trump.
TRUMP IS A BILLIONAIRE FROM QUEENS. He shouldn't remind me of John Wayne.

But that's what I immediately thought when I saw the photos.
I've determined that Trump has a rock-solid base of about 45 percent of the voting population.
None of us have defected.
It's because we see him as he IS.
This little fella is hopeless.

I have a question about these folks:
In photos, why do so many of them look like they're straining to defecate?
The veins in their foreheads stick out.
Have you noticed that?
They look sinister.

Or they make THIS horrible expression.
I can get along with anybody as long as they're not abnormal.
I have every mental problem under the sun, but you'd never know it if we sat down and had a nice talk.
It's because I'm hugely strong, so I don't interrupt to make you somehow change yourself.

I'm crazy, but I'm not neurotic.
That makes me easygoing.
My craziness doesn't make me strain at stool when smiling or show my teeth like a cannibal.
AND I DON'T PROJECT.

"IF I WANNA STINK, I WILL, DADDY!"
Fine.
Go stink. Who cares?
Such a BRAVE statement! To be unclean and stinky.

When you can't READ things normally, you can't understand them.
If you think John Wayne can't act, you're as sensitive as a maple butcher's block.

I you can't understand your opponent, you can't defeat him or her.
Simple as that.
Ever heard of the Battle of Snipe, during the Second Battle of El Alamein?

It was an absolute nightmare for the British.
The Germans had laid a MASSIVE minefield that the British had to cross. Under heavy and constant artillery fire AT NIGHT, the British cleared three narrow lanes.
Lieutenant Colonel Victor Buller Turner was given a suicide mission:
The Germans had laid a MASSIVE minefield that the British had to cross. Under heavy and constant artillery fire AT NIGHT, the British cleared three narrow lanes.
Lieutenant Colonel Victor Buller Turner was given a suicide mission:
Defend a tiny kidney-shaped outpost in the sand for as long as he could, with twenty-one 6-pounder antitank guns.
In one day and night, they were attacked by over 100 German and Italian tanks, were shelled by artillery, and bombed from the air.
All the tanks poured heavy machine-gun fire into the position.
AND THE BRITISH ACCIDENTALLY SHELLED THE POSITION.

AND THE BRITISH ACCIDENTALLY SHELLED THE POSITION.
Of the 90 British soldiers, 14 were killed and 39 were wounded. They lost all 21 antitank guns.
But they knocked out 90 tanks, a staggering 10 percent of all the German tanks in North Africa.
The Germans and Italians were convinced that they couldn't lose.

The Germans and Italians were convinced that they couldn't lose.
But the British had chosen SOFT SAND.
All they needed was a TINY depression for most of the enemy tanks rounds, artillery rounds, aerial bombs, and machine-gun fire to be ineffective.
The soft sand nullified the explosions just enough to make the difference.

The soft sand nullified the explosions just enough to make the difference.
In one case, ONE sergeant served as the gunner and Lieutenant Colonel Turner was the loader.
They knocked out nine tanks with nine rounds.
By letting the Germans and Italians get really close, they knocked out TWO TANKS with ONE round.
Over and over.

Did you know that when the steel is too hard on a tank, it'll SHATTER?
The Italian tanks shattered.
So the suicide mission...wasn't.
Lt-Col Turner defied all expectations from both sides.
By choosing a soft patch of sand. That was all it took.

That's who I see.
Watch him prove it.
