People here need to relax. He frequently does things like this to get a desired effect. Trump does the same thing when dealing with other leaders. In this case I suspect Scott was trying to do something else, but this ended up being good enough that he called it a win.

Dude he teaches persuasion - it’s literally his #2 topic behind Trump

Pacing and leading

You can’t change someone’s mind without meeting them where they are at first. Agree and amplify

You go on day 1 and say “you’re absolutely right, that thing he said was BAD. It was the WORST. I will NOT be voting for that guy!”

That way on day 2 you can say “but you know... if you were in that spot...”

I still need to watch his statement in context. Only heard people say that he wasn’t supporting Trump.

Why would you believe some humourless clowns? Some people here get triggered way too easily.

What part of my saying that I need to watch the video and get context makes you think I believed them or was triggered?

He literally said in that video "Trump has lost my vote" .. of course he then said "he can win it back easily, by addressing this issue"

He said he was not voting for him. The rest of the podcast was clearly in support. He was just frustrated that he invested so much in defending trump against the typical racial garbage and trump had kinda went soft in reaction to the question. I felt the same way. Like “oh great here he just gave a whole bunch of ammo to them”. Adams will come back around.

When someone asks you every day if you like sucking dick, eventually you’re going to just stop answering or it’s going to seem like you like sucking dick

The question is loaded BS. But he could and should have gave a bit more of an absolute disavowal than the “sure”.

He has. Dozens of times. I think he handled it perfectly. Chris Wallace is the one who looks like a clown.

1
MagaNV 1 point ago +2 / -1

I know he has. But for everyone who hasn’t heard him on multiple occasions it just wasn’t strong enough. Not the end of the world.

Are you a faggot?

Some people don't want a bitch for a president that will "dance" when ordered to "dance". Not that I disagree with you, I just can't imagine myself in Trump's shoes without me losing my cool and cursing at everyone.

He played coy 4 yrs ago, too, and said he was voting for Hillary bec he didnt want to get killed...it was the safer vote. He is just fooling around.

Well he is a trained psychologist hypnotist (I meant) and an expert in persuasion.

Maybe it's all a big con?

2

I don't think he's a trained psychologist.

That was a little more obvious satire. He's backpeddling after his morning Periscope numbers were less than half than usual and his YT channel got ratioed to hell and back.

Either way, he's meaningless.

Adam is the kind of guy who will fuck with people even as they are being loaded into the cattle cart. But it will be totally in good nature.

Is Scott Adams pulling an Ann Coulter on us?

FitOfficial [S] 7 points ago +8 / -1

I've never been able to stand Ann no matter what my political opinion may be. She's so unlikable.

Two different creatures. Coulter got a huge head and ego after selling a ton of books and suddenly thought she was much smarter than the Very Stable Genius (her first mistake), so then started shilling all over the place how stupid and full of BS Trump was (her second and biggest mistake). Her following and popularity plummeted (probably her book sales too!!) and she's been struggling for relevance ever since.

Adams is just always playing stupid fucking games, supposedly pretending he disagrees with Trump half the time, and then supposedly saying the equivalent of "just joking" afterwards when he gets shit on, on Twatter etc. His wishy-washy games have just gotten old and tired. People are sick of the pseudo-intellectual routine. Get on the train or get off.

Scott is the highest IQ person I know after POTUS.

He thinks he's smarter than he is. His 'games' get a little tiring.

He posted that at 4:20 for a reason.

His credibility is still officially in fucksville.

Wish he would be a debate moderator.

Not sure why my dipshit autocorrect possessed his name but yeah, in the responses he confirms he was just seeing how long it would take leftists to hate him anyway.

Seems like an exercise in futility, but don't be so trigger happy. Scott's good people.

People on this website are too quick to pull the trigger. Fucking chill, people. Put some separation between us and the Liberals.

Trump's debate performances are sometimes cringey in the moment.

But I'm smart enough at this point to realize Trump is FAR smarter than I am. And that his instincts are borderline superhuman.

I have a hunch that Scott's take will evolve after a few days go by.

This time next week he will be telling us that in retrospect Trump's performance was a master class in persuasion, and that Trump has his vote 200%.

Whatever happened to this guy’s morning “coffee talks”? Those were pretty chill but I remember that like 2 years ago...

I lost all interest in Scott Adams when he said that he was concerned about his friend Kathy Griffin when she was hospitalized for “Covid.” It was a mild cold, by the way.
