Emotional intelligence. The awesome and bright Rob Long showed very little of it today regarding Trump’s maladroit tweet fiasco. The Left had been setting itself on fire for a week and Trump came by and DOUSED it.
Trump’s tweet was a fire hose and he DOUSED the friggin’ fire! — and burned himself in the process.
Incredible.
And Rob doesn’t seem to grasp that. He doesn’t quite understand the ramifications of Trump’s tweet, and how idiotic it was.
Incredible.

Not all of us have time machines to jump forward to 2020 and see what the ramifications are.

I think Netflix should get into the mainstream movie business - release movies that they produce into theaters - in order to drive demand for them and perhaps sequels or tv series based on them - from streaming. For example the movie could be considered the pilot episode. Like the original Battlestar Galactica (May 1978) which had the tv series that followed in September. I remembered being so mad at Jimmy Carter - because I didnt get to see the movie in the theater - and the night it was debuting on TV, it got bumped for coverage of Jimmy Carter and the Camp David Accords. (Sept 17 1978)
I also think that they should re-release older movies for theaters in film festivals. Like in February have date night films like "Titanic" "Notebook" etc. (at a lower price) just to let people get their nostalgia for these films they may have seen when they where dating... How cool would be, to be able to see the movie you went to, on your first date with your wife - in the theater again? Of could you imagine, having the original cuts of "Star Wars" re-released as a triple feature? I bet they'd do another billion dollar box office. You know, have patriotic films re-released out for the summer for july 4th and so on.
Maybe it could help re-establish the habit and nostalgia of going out for a movie.
