Over the years he’s found that it WORKS. People will just bow to the bluster and cave, cuz it sure beats arguing the point. He’ll throw so much shit their way that all they think
about is how, and how soon, they can climb out of it. Not many want to stand their ground and fight. Besides, he’s got more money, so if nothing g else he can outlast ‘em.

Sooooooooooooo… OUR Job One is to figure out how to fight all that on ground that’s more solid for OUR side. We’ve still got time to work up good slogans, approaches, strategies, and talking points.
