101. A Cure for the "Infected" Trump's First 28 Days:
Wed Jan 25, 2017, 05:23 AM
Jan 2017

It's a Cookbook, stupid. It's 100% psychological warfare. 0% ideology (from Trump and minions)

Watch out for your anger; if Trump pisses you off, he'll soon own you.

Every single thing Trump has done (and will do going forward) is nothing more than an intentional troll-job on bedrock liberal values. Make No Mistake, that is the main intent: to demoralize every single decent liberal on earth. It is Trump's revenge on liberals for completely rejecting him in every way. He's now mashing their faces in his win.

I am a liberal. If I were not hyper aware of this tactic he is using, Trump's ridiculously anti-liberal moves would probably have the same effect on me that a bite from a rage zombie from the 28 Days Later movie would have. Of course, that's the precise goal of most psychological warfare. The chess moves are calibrated to drive the opposition into an "infected", mindless rage, thereby impairing its ability to be an effective opponent.

This knowledge should cure your liberal Trump-rage infection and inoculate you going forward. You can just laugh at it now, I hope.


Main Point. Don't succumb to rage. If he's pissing you off, he's owning you and you're now "infected."
