grabbing a soldier, pointing it at the other side and saying "pew, pew, pew....pew"

Do you have a particular interest in the business? Why no other videos? Why no participation in discussions?

That's confusing. His show is nationally syndicated with almost 1/2 million subscribers. Maybe I'm misunderstanding you. BTW, I love his videos.

Because YouTube revenue depends on views.

That's why the entirety of this poster's "contribution" to DU are headlines and Pakman videos.

Yeah, like I had 5:43 to find the money quote in this video - NOT.

If someone posts a time cue to the relevant quote from Trump, that would be marginally interesting. But 5 minutes of nasal-voiced commentary? No.

Take a look at this poster's DU Journal. The only purpose of the account is to spam Pakman videos, and not to engage in a discussion of any sort.

I tend not to open them if they are a Packman video. I'm glad he has revenue - and supporters. But to me, it's not the news I want (it's a second hand and just a personal opinion). So........I've stopped opening things from the video/media section unless I know where it originates. (And that's a drag)

It is polite to post a few words about the video when posting one.

Sometimes, I forget to notice that it is another rsacamo spam post, and assume from the headline that there is a video directly showing whatever is promised by the headline, rather than Pakman going on about it for 5 minutes.

There's nothing immediately apparent in the video preview that even identifies it as a Pakman video. In fact, he intentionally selects his YouTube "key frame" to be something other than him. One would look at the OP, assume it is a video of Trump saying something and then be treated to Pakman droning on about it. Whether Trump actually said what is in the headline, I don't know. I suppose it is buried in there somewhere.
