I don't think there has ever been a time when a caller starts out by identifying himself (or herself) as a "lifelong Republican" when he (or she) wasn't a... SEMINAR CALLER.

Maybe the caller really was a lifelong Republican who belonged to the Lowell Weicker-Jake “the Snake” Javits-Clifford Case—Nancy Kassebaum wing of the GOP.

That was worthless. Why oh why did I waste time watching this one? I usually find Dummie Funnies videos better than this.

Wow, that was confusing. There was one too many on the line talking over one another or not at all.

If you guys didn’t know where the term “Seminar Caller” came from, it was when Rush found out there were literally SEMINARS where people were tried to say things like “I like President Bush, but...”

It actually worked quite well against Rush for a while.

Seminar Callers seek to exploit the human tribal instinct to “steer the herd away” from someone or some cause by building false consensus.

First they identify with the listeners..

“I was a lifelong republican”

Then they cast doubt:

“Until X Y and Z”

Then they disrupt

“And that is why I will not support X Y and Z”

Ii is all a psychological trick as the democrats cannot back their carp up with facts.

Funny, I was thinking of ‘ol Rushbo when I read the letter I’ve linked below. Don’t know who he is, but he sure sounds like a “seminar writer”.

Note that he goes on and on about how he can’t support Trump after “what he did on January 6th”, but never specifies what it is Trump supposedly did that he found unforgivable.
