Although this is a pro-Trump article, it is an excellent example of what they are thinking and reveals the ways they can make Trump's image palatable to the American people. Notice this article was written in November right at the time Trump made his 'Save the Cat' efforts with the Carrier air-conditioning company. It was Chuck Jones, the union president, who broke the illusion by calling Trump a liar. That is the way it has to be done. My apologies if anyone thought this was a promotion of Trump.

To understand Trump is to understand Steve Bannon who masterminded the Trump campaign around the filmographer Leni Riefenstahl's work who is best known for her propaganda film "Triumph of the Will". Throughout the 1930's she portrayed Hitler as a regular guy who loved his dog, danced a jig, laughed with the guys juxtaposed to the Nuremberg rallies showing Hitler to be a tough guy who was going to make Germany great again etc, etc. Bannon has openly admitted his admiration of Riefenstahl's filmography since that is one of his specialties as well. It was Riefenstahl who is the one who really created the image of Hitler to make him acceptable to the German people. Goebbels was merely his mouthpiece and promoter of his evil ideas.

That is why I posted this article so you can see what these monsters are trying to do.


How to Break an Illusion

Posted November 14th, 2016 @ 8:23am in #Trump #Clinton

Anti-Trump protesters believe they are fighting the good fight to stop a racist, homophobic, sexist monster. But about half of the country – the half that I’m in – is in a different movie. In our movie, we selected a new president and half of the country is in cognitive dissonance over it. Assuming the protesters are the ones experiencing the illusion, and not us, how can we release them from their zombie-like existence so they will stop blocking traffic?

. . .

In summary, you can’t prove you are honest by NOT stealing something in public. But you can prove you are not a monster by saving a kitten from a tree in public. Monsters never do that sort of thing. This idea is so true that it became the title of the best book ever written about movie script writing: Save the Cat.

Watch for Trump to save some kittens – as many as necessary – until you can’t hold in your mind the frame that he’s a monster. Enjoy the show. The Master Persuader is just getting started.
