How does Trump create dilemmas for his political opponents?
Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino. Folks, this is the genius of Trump, right? He puts his political opponents in these classic dilemmas. where it's essentially, if you want to look this up, most of you kind of know what it means anyway. I don't mean to sound like an arrogant ass, but you know what Hobson's choice is? It's a choice that's really no choice at all. In other words, like, you can take this horse or no horse at all. Well, that's not really a choice. You have to take the horse, right? Donald Trump, the genius of Trump, Again, I'm not saying everything's 4-D chess, but I'm saying a lot of it is that the media misses, is he puts his political opponents into classic dilemmas where either choice is bad.
Someone said it the other day. Was it Gutfeld on The Five? I'm not really sure. Someone on The Five brought it up. Another genius component, tactical political component of Trump is that he gets his opponents to vigorously support an issue that only 15% of America, i.e. the communist crazy, support. And he gets them to do it vigorously just as a reflexive anti-Trump response.
What is the 'show your ass theory' in politics?
I have a name for that. I've been calling it the show your ass theory. How it just becomes all about fighting Trump at the expense of rationality? I'm going to show you what I mean at the beginning of the show. About, again, this government spending issue. How he has the Democrats, unbelievably, they're usually smarter than this, tactically speaking, defending the indefensible. And I'll explain for new Lanue, thanks to my man Cat Turd. It meant to be a joke, but it blew up yesterday. I think it was like two or three trending on Twitter. Today's sponsored by Beam. Get a good night's sleep. Go to shopbeam.com slash Bongino.

So I was joking yesterday about this gentleman who has become a national hero, standing up to the raving banshees at this government building, Max Seedwaters. I need you to identify yourself. Immediately, this guy, what did you call him, Justin? The most unbothered man in America. So because he's, you know, this guy's probably a low-key guy and doesn't want his name out there, I understand.
What is the impact of social media on political narratives?
So I said, listen, we need to give this guy a medal under the moniker Fanu Lanu. Finula new cat turd. I asked him to make it go viral. I was kind of kidding, but he did. It was trending on Twitter all night. You can go look it up. Finula new is a law enforcement term. When you don't know the name of the person you're targeting, it stands for first name, unknown, last name, unknown.
