U.S. payrolls increased by 147,000 in June, more than expected

59. I think the complete over-saturation of political ads

that MOST people tend to tune out, resulted in people just not motivated.

They are used to hearing "hyperbole" every 4 years and how the "world is about to come to an end" and then when the election is over, to them, "nothing changes".

This is literally the realm of what Tip O'Neill would always say about "politics" (and it is something that we need to adopt more of, quick, fast, and in a hurry) -

I.e., we are not a monolith and we need to focus "locally" (even more granular than the "50 state strategy" ).

I have posted before that this is like the story/parable of "Peter and the Wolf" where the little boy Peter would continually claim that a wolf had come into the village and was going to go after the sheep. And each time, the townspeople found there was no wolf. So that one day when a wolf DID come to town and here comes Peter trying to warn everyone, he was ignored and the wolf feasted.



What happened during the 2024 election wasn't just a one election cycle phenomena. It has been in the works for years.

I have also posted this from 13 years ago (2012) from a Grover Norquist speech -

It was during a slightly different era but the strategy was the SAME.

And hope you enjoy the holiday and upcoming weekend as well.
