1:00:01Now PlayingSince the last conversation, there has been increased coverage of Donald Trump's mental health. Dr John Gartner has been working with George Conway on an anti-psychopath pack and has started a podcast called Shrinking Trump.
They discuss how Biden dropping out of the race has brought more attention to Trump's mental incapacity. Gartner also talks about the effectiveness of George Conway's strategy to provoke Trump into behaving irrationally through targeted ads. They discuss Trump's lying, crowd size obsession, and the psychology behind it. They also discuss Kamala Harris' strategy of making Trump appear smaller and weaker. Coach Walz is a brilliant politician who transcends the politician label and comes across as a real person. He connects with voters who may not align with Kamala Harris by embodying the archetype of a Midwestern dad and a football coach. Kamala Harris and Coach Walz have found a balance and chemistry that covers the waterfront of America, appealing to a wide range of voters. To prepare for Trump's potential refusal to accept a loss, Harris could predict his behavior in advance and name it, gaining some power over it. Fact-checking can be effective in combating lies, but it's important to avoid getting trapped in a defensive position and instead go on the offense. Rebuilding civility on a larger societal scale may involve a decrease in temperature once Trump is gone and a regression back to mean views. Kamala Harris's personality and psychological structure make her an effective opponent against Trump, as she projects strength, joy, and a sense of fun. Young people are becoming more engaged in politics, particularly young women. The public reaction to John Gartner's work has been positive overall, although there was some backlash when he and Harry discussed Biden's aging during the debate. The upcoming debate between Harris and Trump is highly anticipated, and there are differing opinions on whether Trump will show up.
