14. TV can not do two things at once

You can walk and chew gum at the same time. TV can not talk about Trump failing to protect us and talk about Flynn at the same time. A person on the radio can not say Trump failed us and say Flynn deserves jail at the same time. I want TV to talk about Trump failing us all the time, I want radio talking about Trump failing us all the time. I want people to have this thought all the time: Trump failed us. I guarantee you Trump knows how important this is. Trump knows that every minute TV talks about Flynn is a victory for him. You must understand how Trump manipulates news to keep it away from stories which damage him. He creates controversy on purpose to reduce time focusing on what harms him in public opinion. When you don’t talk about Trumps failure to protect us, when you chew gum instead of walking, Trump wins. Don’t let him win. Tipper Gore was a master of this in the 1992 election. No matter what question she was asked she brought it back to the bad economy. How old are your children? 8, 10, 12 and because they have their lives ahead of them I know how important it is for us to fix this bad economy. Tipper Gore understood how politics works. You need to know how it works too. The only thing we should talk about is how Trump failed to protect us from the virus. Any other topic is a loss for us.
