Trump's Insurgency creates our Tahrir Square Moment

Open source insurgencies and protests can arise spontaneously and they are very hard to stop once they get going since they are impervious to most forms of repressive counter-attack and political subversion.  For example, the open source movement propelling Trump forward made him impervious to attacks on his character.  It also eliminated any need for "ground game" or standard political organization and obviated any need for information disclosure and detailed policy papers.  

Of course, that doesn't mean you can't defeat an open source insurgency.  You can, but it requires a different approach.  For example, here's a simple idea for how to defeat Trump's insurgency back in July:

IF Trump is running an open source insurgency, you don't go after the man to defeat him. Attacking him directly won't work. He's impervious to attack. One reason is that a good 60% of America has been lied to so much by the establishment, they don't believe anything they say anymore.
