Strategic Chaos Explored On The Brett Winterble Show

Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 

Brett kicks off the program by talking about chaos in the political landscape and the strategic use of unpredictability. He emphasizes that while many see disorder as a sign of decline, it can actually signal a calculated and powerful strategy at work. Drawing from historical examples like Hannibal, Scipio, and Sun Tzu, Brett parallels these ancient tactics with Donald Trump’s political maneuvering, claiming Trump uses confusion as a tool to destabilize opponents and consolidate influence. He argues that what some view as random or reckless is actually deliberate, and it's reshaping America’s position globally. Brett contends that the economy is strong, rivals like Iran and China are unsettled, and allies are aligning with U.S. interests. Throughout the monologue, he stresses that confusion isn’t the end—it's the beginning of dominance, positioning Trump’s strategy as both modern and rooted in timeless principles of power and warfare.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:19):
News Talk eleven TENNY nine to three WBT. It's the
Brett Wittererble Show seven oh four five seven zero eleven ten.
Also reach out at the WBT text line driven by
Liberty Buick GMC. Our telephone number is available to you
if you want to text us or you want to
call in in opine about a number of different things

(00:41):
that are out there happening. So one of the things
that I think is particularly interesting as we sit back
here and we look at the big stories moving and
I want to tell you this. I want to know
where all the chaos and commotion and lunacy is actually coming.
I want to know where this is. We will talk,

(01:03):
We will talk about what happened in New York City yesterday.
We will talk about a number of all these big stories.
But I want to start with being a forward looking person.
All right. I am a forward looking person. I am
an optimist. I am not a pessimist. I don't give up,
I don't quit. I'm not a quitter. I got nowhere
else to go. Oh wait, no, that was from officer
and a gentleman. But the fact of the matter is,

(01:25):
there is so much cool stuff that is going on
here that people don't want to acknowledge. They don't want
to acknowledge the incredible opportunities that continue to exist in
this community and in communities around our country. And why
do you think that is? Why is it that the

(01:46):
only people that seem to be angry, the only people
that seem to be sad, are the people who refuse
to acknowledge successes. Very important to understand. History does not
repeat itself. It reloads with better aim ladies and gentlemen,

(02:09):
in every era, every empire. Power doesn't belong to the strongest.
It belongs to the strategist who makes the chaos his currency.
This is an important lesson for you and your children
to hear. Rome knew this, China knew this, and today

(02:29):
America wields it. When Hannibal crossed the Alps, breathing fire
and elephants, Rome did not panic. Fabious Maximus refused battle.
He sewed confusion, He burned the crops, He kept the
enemy busy while bleeding him dry. The Fabian strategy taught

(02:52):
us some wars are one without a single sword unsheathed.
Then came Scipio at Zama. Hannibal unleashed his war. Elephants
Scipio didn't flinch. He opened the corridors and the ranks.

(03:13):
The Chaos charged forward and crushed its own army. That day,
Rome weaponized confusion like a scalpel across the Far East.
China wasn't fighting battles, it was playing chess Sunzu. The
greatest victory is that it requires no battle. They used

(03:36):
sheet momentum as a weapon, spirit as a shield. Commanders
struck when disorder peaked and the enemy blinked. This was
the warfare as poetry as psychology. Okay, Brett, what's the

(03:57):
big deal with this, with this lecture you're giving us,
Because when we are watching this in real time and
the country is becoming stronger, look around and see what
you see. Donald Trump has turned this ancient doctrine into
a political doctrine. Keep the system off balance, keep the

(04:17):
media guessing, keep the world reacting. That's what he's doing.
Every poll that has come out in the last ninety
days indicates that the Democratic Party is in chaos. They
don't know what they want, but they know they want socialism, communism, radicalism,
free stuff. They are hanging on to late stage Soviet

(04:42):
communism and they're trying to reheat this at the border.
Deportations plan and drop like thunderclaps. Troops deployed not just
to guard, but to remind. Policy changes reversed, revived, renamed.

(05:04):
NGOs are scrambling, courts reel. The disorder has become the
leverage in trade. Tariffs drop like siege weapons. One hundred
and forty five percent here, forty six percent there. Nations react,
they negotiate, they reorient, then they boom and they're suspended.

(05:27):
This isn't economics, this is psychological warfare through unpredictability in governance.
Project twenty twenty five is in a policy, it's a purge.
We're told whole agencies are in the crosshairs. Oversight is dismantled.
Power is consolidated like Rome's manipular formation. Trump's strategy is modular.

(05:50):
It's fluid like China faints, not fainting like hitting the ground,
but fainting in a misdirection. It's a calibrated shock, ragment
and seize control before the counter strike lands. Are you
watching the chaos or are you commanding the chaos? Because

(06:12):
the enemies of today and the empires of today are
not built with bricks and swords. They're forged in tweets,
executive orders, and global flash points go back to the

(06:32):
beginning of what I just laid out for you. From
Scipio's war lanes to Trump's trade feints, from sun Zou's
quiet kill to border blitzes. This isn't random, this isn't
an occurrence. It's orchestrated. It's deliberate, and it's working. The

(07:01):
economy is strong. People understand this. Donald Trump has taken
the position of giving a number of days for the
Russians to try to work this out, and upon seeing
them as an unseerious foes, he's cut the time in half.

(07:22):
It's working. Iran is in chaos. China is doubting, The
EU is an ally buying our energy and deploying our weaponry.
Confusion is not the end of strategy. Let me say

(07:45):
this again. Confusion is not the end of strategy. It's
the beginning of supremacy. The United States has been counted
out more times than you can imagine, and we are
now in a strong position.
