The best, noteworthy, and most successful politicians are usually firebrands that didn't back down from their stances and didn't cave to outside pressure and at least not without concessions from the opponent.

Yeah but implementing this in an intellectually sound way is tough. This administration, IMO, is the first time we've really seen the troll elements put to use for (what we're promised will be) substantive gains.

It's just way too early to see what the payoff will be. I agree generally that you can't wilt under attack and have much impact. But I think that's a generalized rule we're applying to a more specific situation when it comes to characters like Bannon and Milo and the like.
