Election Fraud – The Terminology

We begin today's work with a second poll. Our 1st recent poll asked about a seemingly subtle difference, Vote Fraud vs Voter Fraud, and Vote Fraud won at 64% preference. Here's our second poll:

2) Again, thanks go out to @micomazuma who first recommended the term Election Fraud to me. I deeply appreciate such input and urge everyone to follow Arizona Mom. She's a thinker!

@micomazuma 3) It's difficult TO predict that Election Fraud will win. If wrong, I'll have some work to do to figure out why! But, if right, I have a bit of a theory to offer. Americans, and most especially MAGA Americans, are sick of the small game. We want to go...BIG.

4) That's why we elected Donald John Trump. He's the biggest of the big. If you were watching the primary debates in the 2016 cycle, you saw Trump knock out one small soul after the other until he wiped the board clean. He defines Larger Than Life, and we LOVE that.

5) I put forward that the same is true intellectually. That's the bet that @KateScopelliti and I made in publishing our book in 2018. We felt that the MAGA Movement had a profound and deep intellectual foundation and we ran with that.

6) Let's linger on point. There is a huge differential separating Intellectualizing and Intellectual. The ‘izing version is essentially BS. Or, it's an escape into high falutin language to hide LACK of intellectual rigor. There is a problem with the word Intellectual, though.

7) You can believe me when I tell you that, unless you run in Intellectual Circles, there is almost no worse epithet to allow into your reputation, socially or even worse, in business. No one in business wants to be tagged AN Intellectual. It means thinker, NOT doer.

8) It's a part of my own personal story that I had to learn how to curse, and curse really, really well, in order to escape my prison cell in the Intellectual Ivory Tower. Oh my, that's the kiss of death in business. Yet, I am indubitably an intellectual, obviously.

9) Here's a battle I chose to fight in my 20's and 30's. A client would tell me, "Scopes, that's just semantics." And I'd say, "Damn tooting straight it's semantics, semantics is everything." Okay, I might have used a saltier term that damn tooting, but you get the idea.

10) Let's drop down a level. No, things are not what they are called. Thinking that the name and thing are equal is one of the greatest thought errors we can make, and we make it all the time. The name is not the thing. Change the name, the thing doesn't change.

11) Does that mean names don't matter at all? Hayell no! Change the name and the thing doesn't change, but the way we think about it does. And there are no actions, no decisions that lead to actions the do not follow thinking. Thought is behind all action.

12) Sadly (I’m lying about that), we must drop down one final level. The problem with thinking, and how it precedes all action, is that the VAST majority of thinking is unconscious. We don't know that - or even what - we were thinking. But we were.

13) I can make this simple. Every time - as in every single time - you have either said or heard someone else say, "I wasn't thinking," a more accurate statement would have been - and you have heard or said this too - "I don't know what I was thinking." Isn't that interesting?

14) In my line of work, I have to demonstrate changed behavior following from the consultations we engage. And I have had to master the art of changing what people think in order to change what they do. It is a principle. I'll share it...

15) IF YOU WOULD CHANGE WHAT SOMEONE DOES, YOU MUST CHANGE HOW HE THINKS, FIRST.

In management, the biggest mistake we can make is to focus solely on the behavior and the outcome. We must focus on the thinking and the effort. There is no other path to real change.

16) Here's a word change I'd like to urge. I don't think we're actually talking about mere politics, here. I think we're talking about something more like citizenship. I don't really like that word. And certainly not civic participation or any such.

17) Politics has become such an ugly word. We have to raise the level of our discourse, and yes, our conversation. Let me ask, who doesn't hate the word Narrative anymore? I don't even want to type the phrase that begins with Change the...

18) We're ready for bigger ideas. We're sick to death of small thinking and the even smaller people who foist in on us constantly. Okay, there's one more part of my theory. We want the big picture, too, not the little one. That's why Vote Fraud is better than Voter Fraud.

19) More than one person remarked that a voter is a person, whereas vote is THE VOTE itself. It's a far bigger category. And that's why I'm calling that Election Fraud will win today's poll. It's an even bigger idea. See the trend?

20) Part of the Democrat Psyop that's going on right now is the ongoing effort to force us to think the smallest thoughts possible. That's a huge part of how they believe they're going to get away with denying election fraud even exists. Nah. Not a problem, they're yammering.

21) If Pops Staples were still here, I'd love to hear him do a slight remake, something along the lines of Respect Your Mind, Protect Your Thoughts.

22) Who remembers the Bold Fresh mind of Bill O'Reilly? He too was demonized by the left, and part of their perpetual attack was targeted to discredit his intellect. I'm telling you, that is one bright mind. He's brilliant.

23) I'll you one amazingly brilliant mind that no one could ever even think to attack, Charles Krauthammer. It was likely the unwitting beginning of the end for us when FOX lost Charles. Talk about irreplaceable.

24) We have one more intellect to mention, Frank Luntz. I used to love that man and his work. And let me tell you, he is both a skilled pollster and a brilliant strategist. He only fell due to be a - explitive deleted - RINO. I'd say corrupt, but I don't know that.

25) Wouldn't it be glorious to have a MAGA Luntz, and an RNC led by a true MAGA soul as well, working together with us here, testing out terms like Voter vs Vote vs Election Fraud, and THEN! And then converting the results into strategy and action? I know, it's just a dream.

26) Hey there now. Don't be mean to yourself, Pasquale. You know that the word JUST is one of the most dangerous words in the English language. Maybe instead of being JUST a dream, it might become a REAL dream, the kind you make come true.

27) Wow! I just checked results,and with 44 votes, we at 82% for Election Fraud, 18 for Vote Fraud. Don't you love it when an easy prediction comes true? I sure do. But what about testing the theory I've put forward above?

28) Theory must be converted into Strategy, Strategy into Tactics, and you got it, Tactics into Action. Here's that list:

1) Theory
2) Strategy
3) Tactics
4) Action

29) And let me tell you why we're so bad at that in the MAGA Movement. Converting theory into action requires - you'll be surprised, a rigorous, robust, unified, bi-direction Chain of Command (COC). Yep.

1) Command
2) Senior Leaders
3) Junior Leaders
4) Followers

30) As you can imagine, we'll be discussing COC a lot in coming weeks and months. But for now, I'm telling you that you can't pull off and Election Fraud Psyop without a robust COC. The other side has it. We don't.

Food for thought for inquiring minds and those who want to know.
