I just realized what Smith is doing. She obviously has no clue. This fall I was playing sidewalk Tic Tac Toe with my 8 YO niece. I was trying to convince her there is no way to win if both players do not make a mistake. She kept looking for loopholes, for ways to make it work. It didn't, until she made a mistake and I did beat her, and then she spent the next 30 minutes trying to make the game look like she had won. It was eventually a solid brown square...
Anywho, Smith is like my 8 YO niece. She's convinced there is a way to make things work despite everyone knowing the winning move against Trump is to not play his game. And eventually she'll make a mistake, we will all lose and she'll spent the next year trying to convince us she was right. Fortunately losing Tic Tac Toe didn't have any consequences...But this is the mental level she is playing from.
