Milo is in the news again. Riots, CNN Character Assassination. Academia Protecting The Liberal Meme.
I am curious about the folks here. What do you think Milo is or represents?
Is he:

Decius, the guy who wrote “The Flight 93 Election” and really annoyed the conservative punditry is now taking a position as senior director of communications at the NSC.
I really love it when the good guys win.
I watched a small event today. Secretary of Homeland Security Kelly said that he would build the wall in about two years. Yesterday he said , when asked if Trump had ever clued him in to the visa ban on the seven countries , his response was “About a year ago, when he asked if I would take the job’.
Secretary Kelly is an impressive man and what is interesting is the complete lack of media reaction the his statements.
I am watching the unfolding of phase two of the media war.
The Defensive Line. Mattis, Kelly , Tillerson, Sessions. Especially Mattis and Kelly will confound the media, who will tread very carefully with trying to destroy them and their credibility.
We have seen Trump and the Media … Continue reading
One of the areas of great angst to me has been the frustration of dealing with what should be our side in the great struggle against progressivism.
I can understand the left, their social justice warriors they created by entrenching in higher education and public education. The rent a thugs who even have their own training camps for radical disruption, the donor base who have their own purposes for the chaos created and Hollywood, who is really worried that their gigs are falling apart as media fragments into thousands of channels.
Parts of the right puzzle me no end. I can understand the blue … Continue reading
All he needs is another 5%
Our talking heads, our leftist twits , our progressive finger waggers are all having an aneurism because they were EXPECTING TRUMP TO MODERATE AND DO THINGS THAT PLEASED THEM.
I wonder where they got this idea, other than it just was one of those things they just assumed they were entitled to, like respect and deference.
I have written before about the ‘dense pack’ tactic Trump is throwing at the entire DC establishment. He is going to drop at least two outrages a day , every day, and three on Sunday.
Media combat tactics, if the media cannot mount an effective … Continue reading
As we end the year it seems that many are anticipating great change in the future. I hear optimistic notes in voices about next year and beyond.
I just finished a deal for replacing a pickup truck fleet for a client. They let the current trucks run until the wheels were falling off as they were unclear if they even had a business future.
As I sit here typing, I await a phone call from the owner to let me know he is ready to sign the credit app , the first money he has borrowed since we took him through chapter 11 six years ago. He is out playing golf to get some in before the deep freeze rolls in next week.
Another group is building apartments … Continue reading
If you look at my bio, you will see I list myself as a “Heinlein American”. I grew up cutting my teeth on Robert Heinlein’s juvenile Sci Fi and went on to read nearly everything he wrote. He too came from a 1930-40s progressive background and evolved considerably rightward as time went on and progressives abandoned many things he held dear.
One of his books which scared me sleepless when I was eight was “The Puppet Masters”, a solid exploration of the mind controlling alien invasion theme.
Normal, everyday people were one by one helpless slaves to the alien presence.
At eight, thinking your parent s could become someone they were not was the thing of sleepless nights. Later in life I met children of addicts who … Continue reading
Donald Trump has done many things, and one of them is to scramble the customer segments for political websites and messaging. As the dust settles after the election, I needed to re-assemble my mental model of the customers of political messages.
When I work with a business owner, a critical component is a map of their customers. Most owners work through the exercise and emerge with a different view of their business.
It is a simple grouping of the groups of customers you want to attract with distinct differences. It serves as a guide to what you offer , how you offer it and to what emotional need they have.
I am going to throw out for your review and comment my rough breakdown of the market for political ideas, … Continue reading
