the last two or three weeks here has been the damnedest thing I’ve ever seen.....blinders on straight off the cliff
The is straight from “The Art of the Deal” regarding negotiations:
“The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular. I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration - and a very effective form of promotion.”

When I read this, I realized what was going on. The man’s trolling.
