CTP (S2E100) Winning Hearts and Minds: Why Some Political Arguments Fail While Others Succeed   
We examine the critical difference between strategically smart and strategically stupid political communication in our 100th (regular Sat's) episodes (plus 80+ MidWeek Guest drops). Effective political persuasion requires focusing on relevant issues that connect with voters rather than sharing inflammatory memes or outdated conspiracy theories.
• The concept of strategic stupidity – sharing content that only generates eye-rolls and mockery
• How focusing on irrelevant figures like the Obamas or Clintons wastes persuasive opportunities 
• The importance of discussing economic issues that affect everyone's daily lives
• Using humor strategically to bypass people's defensive reactions
• Understanding the difference between classical liberals who can be persuaded and committed leftists
• Recognizing that the GOP has become the party of working people while Democrats serve elite interests
• The need for independents to choose sides in the fight to restore the American republic
• How sharing factual, relevant information is the only way to change minds and win elections
