The Trump campaign is paying special attention to its communications department, hiring and promoting to prepare for the double-headed onslaught of 2020 campaigning and the impeachment inquiry.
Oops.
I think you misspelled âpropagandaâ as âcommunications.â
Trump Campaign Bulking Up Alternative Reality Team.
When guilty, this is their go-to.
Shouldnât it be called Prevarication Spreading iso âcommunications?â
Theyâre Recruiting here:
HmmmmâŚdoes âbulking upâ mean theyâre hiring a bunch of thick-os?
'Cause there are already enough thick-o Goopers in Congress to do the job.
Trumpâs coms team will forever do battle with Trumpâs tweeting. Itâs a lost cause. There can be no sane, thoughtful consistency to their messaging because Trump will dependably step all over it within minutes of their issuance of anything. And when Trump is pressed about any disparity heâll gladly throw them under the bus and say something to the effect âI speak for myslef, they donât know what the hell theyâre talking about, I never told them to say what they said.â
Weâre all lucky Trumpâs loose mouth and tweets havenât resulted in a war or a depression to this point.
The âcomms teamâ means Facebook and Twitter, two companies who are more than willing to help. Again.
I would go with mitigation and deflection team.
OT:
Iâm amazed Trump has not tweeted about this:
Hey, way overdue NFL. But better late than never.
Shouldnât that headline say, "Trump Captain Bulking Up Communist Team With Unlimited Assistance From Putin?
Question:
âWhat are they going to say?â
Answer:
Question:
âWho is this directed to?â
Answer:
In another matter, we have lost interest in or lost count of how many critical positions in this morbidly ill administration are unfilled or staffed by âactingâ personnel.The bullshit apparatus is the most critical priority for the Don.
Iâm going with ââprevaricationââ myself. But ââpropagandaââ works , too.
ETAâHeâs also ârecruitedâ the entire GOP apparatus in this effort.
Does âbulking upâ mean hiring more Russian trolls to infect our Democracy? You see them all over the Comments Section online and theyâre easy to recognize:
If someone brings up Hillary, Benghazi, George Soros or âlibtardsâ, itâs a Russian troll. Donât engage, youâll get borscht stains all over your shirt.
With the level of some of the QBs they have, Kaepernick would be a good addition for about half the teams in the NFL.
One can only hold a nonsensical grudge for so long before it looks stupider than it generates a benefit.
@emiliano4, minions.
Iâve done communications all my life, and tried to do it thoughtfully, and I think to a certain extent you can change the perception of a thing if you do it very skillfully. But itâs more important to have a compelling story to tell, an argument that people can nod their heads and agree with, and they donât have that. This isnât one of those law-school problems where right and wrong, innocence and liability teeter on a knife edge. Trumpâs a damn criminal, flagrant and outrageous. Thatâs a heavy lift for any âcomms team.â
I just donât know how much lipstick they can put on this grunt. Itâs going to take some pretty darned good âcommunicationsâ to improve the product.
Some information in this story is highly suspicious.
and hiring Ali Pardo
It seems incredulous to me that someone would willingly work for this administration.
This sentence shines forth though:
The team is much more swampy than the 2016 group, as Trump has shifted to relying on longtime D.C. operatives rather than ragtag outsiders.
That must have been fun to write.
Maybe they could convince Trump to hand out shiny, new dimes to everyone he meets. Well, perhaps a promissory note for a dimeâŚ
ETA: Or he could open a soup kitchen. For a week. Funded by someone else.
