    And once again, Trump controlled the conversation, and all the actual evidence is out there window for most people.

    It would be awesome if there was an unspoken “don’t feed the troll” understanding among journalists, influencers, mods, forum commenters, everyone. When Trump says something outrageously stupid, just… briefly acknowledge it, and then ignore it and proceed as usual. Like he doesn’t exist.

    That’s a narcissist’s worst fear.

    Sure, he’d bounce around in the conservative echo chamber, but at least he wouldn’t pull more people in.

      And yet in another post you’re arguing for people not trying to take control of the narrative and tie it to his firing if aviation safety advisors.

      You just want everyone to be silent on Trump, except Trump.

      It would be awesome if every time he did something, that he was properly challenged.

      Oh and those alt-right echo chambers started before Trump and them growing was what enabled him. Ignore them at your own peril.
