Dead Horse Theory

It is a sarcastic metaphor that explains that there are some people, institutions or nations who deal with a clear problem as if it is incomprehensible, and instead of acknowledging the truth, they turn a blind eye and are skilled at justifying it. The idea is simple:

If you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best and simplest solution is to get off it and leave it. But the reality is:

There are people, institutions or nations who, instead of getting off the horse, take other measures such as:

1. They bring a new saddle.

2. They bring fodder for the horse.

3. They change the rider who rides it.

4. They dismiss the employee who takes care of it and bring in a new employee instead.

5. They hold meetings to discuss measures to increase the horse's speed.

6. They form committees to study the dead horse and analyze the issue from all sides.

7. In the end, the committees reach the same conclusion, which is that "the horse is dead".

8. With the loss of effort, resources and time, they persist in telling the truth, and even compare the horse to other dead horses like it and recommend that the horse is dead because it lacks training and needs a training course.

9. This course requires increasing the horse's budget.

10. Finally, they redefine the word "dead" to convince themselves that the horse is still alive.

The lesson learned reveals that there are people who prefer to remain in denial of reality and waste their time and effort in failed attempts, instead of acknowledging the problem from the beginning and addressing it.#TrumpMarketWatch #MelaniaTrumpLaunchesToken #TrumpMarketWatch
