Just a girl and her poodle vs. the world. I also give insight on relationship building tactics so that you are aware of how you’re being influenced.
Also, my guess is that the deportations are a shiny object pulling the focus away from the HR melee that is taking place within the administrative sector of the government and the shakedown of the heads of the three major military branches as we speak. *shrugs*

Later today I’ll talk about a pivot that will probably be made around grocery prices. (Spoiler Alert: Turns out grocery prices can’t just be brought down *like that* and we’ll need to spin the trade-off: “security”.)

If you weren’t privy to the #SaveTikTok performative art show (read: propaganda campaign) firsthand, buckle up for a wild ride. So TikTok has been apart of some wild stories throughout the years, but it really became apart of the American story during the height of the pandemic.

The other red flag is if you’ve misidentified the benefit to them and they are like, “Yeah, no that’s not what I want.” Then you are either not good at strategic relationship building or just a villain. Sometimes both.

If I have a detailed understanding of my benefit from a relationship, and then say “And for the other person, it’s just going to be good overall.” Red flag.

The problem is when it is used for not “positive for all” outcomes. Now positive is subjective, yada yada. But I think you can tell if that positive equity exists based on how detailed one party describes the benefits for themselves vs. the other person.

Strategic relationship building (imo) should be helping build a meaningful and strong relationship with positive outcomes for both in the most efficient way possible. Efficiency is not a bad word and timely benefit is really better for all.

Think of what is taking place as part of strategic relationships and communications as a social economy. Is the wealth of that relationship dynamic and flowing and lifting all parties, or is the benefit of a relationship being hoarded by one at the expense of the other.

I’m not sharing this insight as a value judgement on what is taking place, although there is some merit to the discussion about whether or not the outcomes of the strategy is genuine and if it is mutually beneficial in the long-run.

Ok, so I’ve had a couple IRL friends ask me why are the GOP’s tactics bad when they’re just being strategic. Like, doesn’t everyone do this? The short answer is they aren’t bad, and yes… everyone (who is big enough to have a strategy/PR person as part of their arsenal) does this.

Why is this the move? Vance is going to be the good cop to Trump’s bad cop/ recent crazy antics. Comparatively, he will probably be chill and therefore seem like a potential friend (spoiler, he is not and I’ll tell you why in the future).

I’m also hella observant. And good at chess.

What are my qualifications you make ask? I grew up in the hood, made my way to a bougie private university, and have had prograsive leadership roles focused on building relationships resulting in financial support. aka, I work with people to fund a mission, not a product (though I’ve done that too).

Ok, I’ve decided what my niche on this platform is going to be: shedding light/ explaining on tactics that are being used in REAL TIME by the Republican Party/Trump PR team to chip away at their liberal opponent.

In addition to the TikTok sketchiness, there’s been a bunch of covert changes on FB too. How do I help fight them while also not giving benefit to FB? #america #democrat #trump
