The "derp" was really stupid but the article is interesting. This is the essential point of it: quote:Trump does seem to have realized that, paradoxically, the 24 hour news cycle and the “Internet Time” phenomena that demands instant responses to other candidate’s statements and acts, has paradoxically led to the accretion of ever greater layers of buffering and vetting to prevent a candidate from losing a news cycle, or several news cycles, to a gaffe that have both created an absolute minimum response time that can be exploited by dispensing with those protections and attenuated the effectiveness of the response when it comes because the fear of the gaffe exceeds the desire to exploit the opportunity. quote:Another way to think about operating inside the OODA loop is that we change the situation more rapidly than the opponent can comprehend (Boyd, 1986, p. 5). And keep doing it. These concepts go considerably deeper than cycling through “observe, then orient, then decide, then act” more rapidly than an opponent. (added linebreaks for readability)

It certainly seems to be an astute observation. Bernie's operating largely outside traditional OODA loops, Trump is actively disrupting them. Trump is probably more effective in this, at the moment, and it's causing the Republicans to go haywire.

I don't think it's been possible to do that before the advent of ubiquitous social media and Internet access. The media simply didn't give you enough air time, and even if you gave speeches daily the media would just simply choose one speech to focus on and discuss until the next news cycle. But now thanks to Twitter, Donald Trump can fire off a statement at literally any time of the day. If he does win, then he'll be our first ever Twitter President.

Joementum posted:I am not surprised that the person who thought, "What newspapers or magazines do you read?" was a "gotcha" question also thinks that asking Donald Trump, who has said the Bible is his favorite book, whether he likes the Old Testament or New Testament more (for the record, his answer was "equal") is a "gotcha" question. I'm starting to think that his answer was probably the best he could give. Saying one or the other could be taken as a slight against either Jews or Christians.

The thing about Trump is he can throw out all this red meat to the extremely racist republican base to get the nomination, then just pivot into a more mainstream candidate for the general election and if anyone calls him on it he'll just call them a loser and mock them on twitter.

There's only one man who's capable of defeating Trump in a zing-off, and he won't step up. I hope he's embarked on a hero's journey to gain the ultimate power or something.
