How to Unhypnotize a Rabid Anti-Trumper

http://blog.dilbert.com/post/146157026376/how-to-un-hypnotize-a-rabid-anti-trumper

Wherein Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, lays out the fundamental anti-Trump arguments—as a Hillary supporter, no less—and destroys them. Thoughts?

 

I find it hard to believe that his statements are premeditated for calculated results. I don't deny that what he's doing is working, but I don't think it is an active technique he is playing.

Love that the anti-Trumper is inherently a "her". Also don't think that "Supereme Court nominee" is considered putting some thought in the decision. It's probably on the same level as any of the other objections.

1. The news doesn't actively report on business deals, I'm sure he's had his fair share of loose cannon acts in private and some even in public (his obscene comments towards Rosie)
2. He has drank alcohol before. He's quoted as saying that he used to "drink a lot and party hard", but he's only recently stopped. He also has his own line of Vodka...
3. wtf, putin does not like Trump that's just plain wrong
4. Business negotiations with Chinese investors is completely different from political negotiations with Chinese political figures

I actually agree with the rest of the persuasion on this part. I never really cared about his bankruptcies for the same reasons the author outlined.

The persuasion part of this was just playing semantics on the word "racist".

The author clearly doesn't understand Islam properly. The theme that he states was meant to be taken in the context of the time in which governments were actively pursuing the destruction and end of Islamic civilization. Most passages in the Quran about violence in any way are almost always in the context of the self-defense of the Muslims of the time.

Meh I'm pretty neutral on this persuasion part. I feel like Scott Adams sort of gave up while winding down writing this and didn't really put much thought or effort on this objection.





It should also be noted for anyone reading that I am anti-Hillary 100% and pretty much #AnyoneButHillary so I'm not attacking Trump or per se against him, I was just looking at this article objectively.
