Yes, In The Last 5 or 6 Days...A former President (Donald Trump) has destroyed his image forever
...........Donald Trump needed to SHUT UP, AND COULD NOT SHUT THE F**K UP..................
It is my opinion, that Trump saying positive things about Putin ("Putin is Smart".) lessened his
support in the Republican Party by at ...least 35 - 40 percent.
In the United States as a whole, Trump is totally finished politically, as a world figure, and as a leader.
I doubt that he will be consulted by major networks, (.except for Fox News) and I think Trump is Finished.
....Donald Trump cannot recover from this one. Not next week, next month or years in the future...
..The money will be gone for him, the fame will be gone for him, and his reputation is destroyed for good.
....Donald Trump has destroyed himself... !!!!!
...Donald Trump will be hated throughout the world..(except in Russia) far more than he was before.
....(In my opinion, just like Richard Nixon was shunned after Watergate, but much worse) Yes, I was around for Nixon &
Watergate)........(.....also in my basement I got newspapers from Watergate when Nixon resigned..}
....Do you agree or disagree?....up to you... :
......................Yes part of U.S. History, also current history in the making!!!!!.................................

Most Americans process information VISUALLY. Glued to TV. Viscerally reached and captivated through flashy graphics and bursts underscored by sound "stingers." Stirring music behind them, or menacing music underneath, to reinforce the subconscious messaging.
Watch for campaign commercials that show the opponent not terribly well-lit, even shadowy, or surrounded by dark atmospherics. The preferred candidate is shown in brighter (not glaring) light, pleasant backgrounds, pretty colors, and so forth. music underneath can switch from major ("our guy"
to minor key ("their guy" .
LOTS of little tricks that gear the mind of the viewer (and secondarily the EAR of the viewer). Unfortunately, Roger Ailes knew all the tricks. To make it all WOW! DYNAMIC!! PIZAZZ!!! BRIGHT WHITE AND YELLO BURSTS!!! BOOMING Excited-Announcer vocals (just this side of Roller Derby) emphasizing the words "FAIR And BALANCED!!! And it was always FAAAAAAAAA-aaair and BALANCED!!!! with a dramatic change in pitch from high to low, by at least two octaves (almost cutting the word "Fair" in half). Your eyes are almost sucked into the screen.
There are all these little tricks and audio and visual devices that add extra layers of subliminal messaging or reinforcement or condemnation or sarcasm or endorsement, from music adding color and mood, and tone-of-voice of whoever's doing the voice track.
It's basically, and in the baldest sense, theatrics. But it's also COMMUNICATION. And what you can say both with well-chosen or memorable or slogan-y words, AND splashy visuals that hit your eye and bore straight down into your memory. It stirs excitement and excitement stirs emotion, and BOOM!!! You've got their attention. THAT'S the impact. If you've stirred their emotion, they're more likely to be open to whatever it is you're selling. If they're receptive to your message, then it's gonna do a few things:
1) reinforce what you already were thinking or believing. You don't need any convincing.
2) reassure some recent wobblers who may just be waking up and realizing they've been fooled, distracted, or flat-out lied to.
3) change a few minds? Using what kind of persuasion technique? (Have you been working on 'em for awhile and they're starting to realize they're being conned, or are they having some sort of political epiphany all of a sudden? *
*Epiphany is an “Aha!” moment. As a literary device, epiphany (pronounced ih-pif--uh-nee) is the moment when a character is suddenly struck with a life-changing realization which changes the rest of the story. Often, an epiphany begins with a small, everyday occurrence or experience.
Donald Trump thinks he can say what he wants anytime and anywhere. It is my opinion that it is all over for
Trump as a world figure. Time will tell, but my opinion will not change. 
ETA: Oh that trump... Maybe I'm just getting old but I don't remember my last stomach bug either.
I know I had one but it's gone now.
