Pitch"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Whether the Republican Party, going forward, continues as the home for the people resisting the Woke Jacobins or some other organization represents them, I think it is necessary that they come up with a simple narrative for why people should vote for them.\u00a0 Rather than the old \u201cTruth, Justice, and the American Way\u201d I think they\u2019re going to have to rebrand.\u00a0 In sales there is the concept of \u201cthe pitch.\u201d\u00a0 Basically, it is the salesman\u2019s best guess at what he can say to the buyer to close the sale.\u00a0 One thing any salesman knows is that the attention span of the customer is extremely short.\u00a0 What is put forth must be the strongest bit of persuasion possible and it needs to be concise.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason, I believe that it is useless to try and win over the Middle and even parts of the Left by waxing poetic about free speech, free enterprise, free trade or even free college.\u00a0 Some of it will work with some of them and some will work with others but even if they believe you it won\u2019t get their attention.\u00a0 All of it has already been said by all the frauds on the Left and the Right a million times already.\u00a0 It\u2019s just background noise at this point.\u00a0 This won\u2019t get it done.\u00a0 And it can\u2019t even be President Trump\u2019s 2016 pitch, \u201cMake America Great Again.\u201d\u00a0 It\u2019s a great pitch and it made him president.\u00a0 But it\u2019s limited to the Right.\u00a0 What we need is something that will work on anyone who isn\u2019t woke.\u00a0 We need this because the Left has unleashed a monster on the country and it shouldn\u2019t be ignored.\u00a0 It is both a horrible weapon and also a great gift.\u00a0 They have dropped the mask and they are allowing the regular people on the Right and the Middle and the Left to really see what they intend for all of us.\u00a0 This is the equivalent of when the Communists took to the streets in Weimar Germany.\u00a0 It was their endgame and they no longer held back about what they intended and what they were willing to do to get it.<\/p>\n<p>By now there is more than enough documentary evidence available from Minneapolis, Kenosha, Portland, Seattle, Chicago, Atlanta, St. Louis and New York.\u00a0 Packaging it into commercials and posters is child\u2019s play for the campaign teams that the political parties have at their disposal.\u00a0 All it requires is the slogan needed to sell the voters and convince them that it is in their interest to buy the product, to vote for the program.<\/p>\n<p>Succinctly put, I think it would be something like this, <strong>\u201cWe are the only ones who can save you and your children from being eaten alive by BLM and Antifa.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0 Some might object to \u201ceaten alive.\u201d\u00a0 Maybe that seems inaccurate.\u00a0 Sure, I\u2019m a bit on the poetic side.\u00a0 Say rather, <strong>\u201cWe are the only ones who can save you and your children from being beaten, robbed and dispossessed by BLM and Antifa.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0 Either way I think that is the gist of the pitch.\u00a0 Forget about freedom, forget about economics.\u00a0 Stick to the fear of being fed to the howling mob.\u00a0 I\u2019ve never been in advertising but I was a salesman and I know that the two most powerful emotions that can be invoked in a pitch are greed and fear.\u00a0 In this pitch, greed doesn\u2019t come into play.\u00a0 But fear is front and center on this one.\u00a0 There are videos of the mob smashing, looting and burning down people\u2019s businesses.\u00a0 We have scenes of them beating and even killing innocent people who didn\u2019t flee from their onslaught.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, if the Republicans truly are too stupid to take advantage of this opportunity then they must simply be replaced by those who aren\u2019t.\u00a0 The Mid-West is full of Democrat voters who can be convinced that it is in their best interests to stop the madness that is being inflicted upon their neighbors every night on their television screens.<\/p>\n<p>For the people listening the message should be forget the tri-corner hats, stock up on ammunition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether the Republican Party, going forward, continues as the home for the people resisting the
