Tom Steyer Even has Impeachment Banners appear on Skype

Last week I wrote about Tom Steyer’s Trump impeachment campaign efforts. Today, I discovered that his campaign even has unique banner ad placements. One of this unique ad placements includes a skyscraper banner that appears on a Skype chat window.

The banner takes you to Tom Steyer’s Impeach Trump Website. My question is why go through all this effort for something that will never happen what-so-ever? Now, I know what you are thinking. Well, if you think like that, it’s kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy, isn’t it? My answer is no and that’s because to accomplish Steyer’s goal you cannot simply disagree with the policy, and expect to change the public’s mind and move them to see things from your point of view, am I right? For what Steyer is asking to happen, the law has to be broken and the President has not done anything that warrants pursuing and or achieving Steyer’s goal.

Besides for this type of effort to succeed you need to focus on changing ideologies and ways of thinking, not a simple task of persuasion.  Efforts discussed in books like Dark Money is what really needs to happen. Anything short of that and you are just wasting your time.

Mr. Steyer, this book discusses how the wealthy billionaires from the far right achieved their political objectives. Maybe the liberals can study and learn some of their political methods? From what I understood from the book is that this type of effort requires major political donations from many, let’s say hundreds of like-minded people, not just a single person (i.e. you) And by the way, just to clarify, I’m NOT one of those people and neither is this blog. ITA and I will support the president until we have to elect our leaders again via the traditional democratic process (voting).

Let end this topic with an easy to understand analogy. Not supporting the president now that he is in office, is like being on a plane and hoping the piolet crashes because you don’t like how he flies the plane.

In terms of advertising, does advertising on Skype have a good ROI?
