In an interview with NBC News’ Hallie Jackson, the vice president said her campaign has the "resources and the expertise" to handle a challenge from Trump.
That’s not what I heard. “We’ve got two weeks to go, and I’m very much grounded in the present. We will deal with election night and the days after as they come, and we have the resources and the expertise and the focus on that as well”
She’s saying they have a bunch of capable people who’ll figure it out on the fly.
That’s called improvising. Improvising is exactly the opposite of a plan. It’s what you do when you have no plan.
If you look at Harris’ history of how she runs her staff, that’s just not what she does. She tends to over prepare to the point of exhaustion. This is sometimes portrayed in the press as “Harris is hard on her staff”, but then you look at the details and it’s more that she expects a lot out of them.
Of course she doesn’t go into details in an interview. It would both bore people watching, and there’s no reason to give the plan away at this point.
It’s also called being ready for anything. It’s what you do when you aren’t entirely sure what the idiot on the other side is going to do.
The world’s best swordsman isn’t afraid of the second best swordsman. He’s afraid of the world’s worst swordsman, cause he can never be sure what the idiot will do.
No it’s not.
Being ready for anything is having a plan for anything.
When you can’t know what your opponent might do, you can’t plan. That’s exactly why the best swordsman is afraid of the worst. He’s forced to go without a plan.
Being ready for anything doesn’t mean planing for everything, that’s impossible. They’ve likely planned for the obvious. They also have the resources ready to go to adapt to an unexpected situation.
A swordsman is t ready to block every conceivable blow. They, instead, prepare to react. If it’s a known attack, they can fall back on a planned move. If it’s abnormal they can react by improvising, using the skills they already have.
Oh, and the swordsman’s issue isn’t the lack of plan, improvisation is a key skill. The issue of the inability to read the opponent. It throws their instincts out. E.g. an attack looks like a faint, since it would leave the attack open to a lethal counter, even if it connected. An expert would never use that. A beginner might.
How can anyone be ready for anything if this is the definition.
Being prepared for anything is about having the skills and tools to solve any problem, any time. On the fly.
A good general isn’t one who relies on his plan surviving contact with the enemy, it is the one who knows it won’t and is able to respond appropriately and timely.
That’s not what I heard.

Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face - Mike Tyson (I think that’s how he said it)

Same principle.
No it’s not.

Just as impossible as being ready for everything.
