The D.T. Playbook: Chapter 2

The D.T. Playbook: Chapter 2:

Alienate your allies and friends.

Then sidle up to strongmen

Leaders, pretending to make amends.

 

Impose tariffs on your close allies.

Oh, yes, and don't forget

To stupidly suggest that they

Could possibly be a national threat.

 

Countries that were threats in the past

Might be scrambling head over heels

To make what in the future for you

Will be lucrative business deals.

 

Overlook the fact that your

Dictator friends have a score

Of D minus or F on human

Rights violations heretofore.

 

Although you and your allies have

Supported one another for years,

Let them know that you support

Countries that will give you cheers.

 

Keep ignoring foreign involvement

In past elections. Instead attack

People in your own system.

Tell them faith is what they lack.

 

Don't forget: distractions, distractions.

Always keep confusion brewing

So people have a tough time seeing

What kind of damage you are doing.

 

Finally, keep repeating words

And phrases over and over. Create

The illusion that your strategies

Are going to make the country great.
