The title of the video "Tucker LOSES IT Over Kavanaugh Siding With The Libs" seems over-the-top click-baity, but that isn;t the reason i posted it.
The content of the video really doesn't matter beyond the way I titled this thread. What I am wondering is if we can use this. If Tucker Carlson wants to outrage his audience against people like McConnell, Kavanaugh, or whomever, perhaps Democrats should "Aikido" that message into one that outrages the right enough that they want them gone. If they are going after their own, I would love to see the punches land effectively.
I don't exactly know how to accomplish that, but Claire McCaskill sort of did that to decent effect, calling Todd Akin "too conservative" during the GOP primary phase. The strategy worked, and she got Akin as an opponent in her course to re-election.

We need to stop giving these people force, nothing like this should ever be posted, who really cares what these jackasses say or do? With Kavanaugh? well, he is unfortunately a judge in the supreme court, so we have to know what he does, but these games of words? Please, no...

(21,132 posts)The video was pretty pointless, other than proof that he said what he did. I think trying to leverage their words against each other might be a decent strategy for us. YMMV.

(21,132 posts)"If it were not for Mitch McConnell, Kavanaugh would have never been able to support the liberal Justices."
I needs some crafting, but this is sort of what I am thinking of.

(70,521 posts)... "planned distraction." What is in the news now? Forged electoral ballots, the Oath keepers being
indicted, on 1/6/21 the Oath Keepers were trying to steal the real electoral ballots from the Congressional
Parliamentarian's office in the US Capitol, and then guess what TFG and his henchmen just happen to
have some new electoral ballots "ready to go" in place of the missing ones. Even if those forged documents
were not accepted they would have added to chaos and TFG would have used that chaos to try to stop the
transfer of power.
This is all a "planned distraction." It is all kabuki theater. Don't fall for it.
Kabuki theatre is known for its heavily-stylised performances, the often-glamorous costumes worn by performers, and for the elaborate kumadori make-up worn by some of its performers.
