We need to understand the difference between actions and head fakes intended to confuse and neutralize the opposition
Jast as in sports, in the real world head fakes, trick plays, confusing the opposition are part of reality. The question is what the result of the play is. Did we Or the other side.... gain yardage, gain an advantage? This is as true with Tesla, Coca Cola and Bud Light as it is with Putin.
What are the results? That is what counts.
When was the last time OUR side was on the receiving end of any type of positive "results?" The government of this country is run by a bunch of fakes, users, and backstabbers.
