Scott Adams was one of the first people to predict President Trump’s victory in 2016. He was shunned by liberals and had events dropped for merely appreciating the “master persuader” skill-set though he disagreed with Trump’s politics. That Scott Adams was attacked online, his livelihood threatened, his girlfriend de-verified on Twitter twice as liberal Big Tech companies sought to punish him and those associated with him drove him to endorse Trump after endorsing Clinton for his literal safety. He later called these liberal bullies "Hillbullies."
After Trump’s win and the confused liberal elites trying to figure out how it happened, Scott Adams received a series of interviews and eventually the deal to write this book.
Scott Adams wrote on his blog for more than a year about how Trump was using master skills of persuasion and negotiation while using that topic as a lead in to talking about his own passion, the psychology of persuasion. This eventually resulted in the book "Win Bigly".

I ordered the book/received it a couple of weeks ago. Bought it to keep; didn’t want to risk having a digital copy ‘disappear’. Hoping to read it Labor Day weekend.
It’s a good read.
It was interesting to read how he, a very left-wing person, was essentially “cancelled” because he simply said, “I think Trump will win.”
And I remember how some of the political commentators were attacked in 2016 whenever they would even *hint* Trump could win for various logical reasons.
Has me worried for Christopher Macchio after his performance last night.
Scott Adams is getting “canceled” now, such as videos removed from Youtube.
