It’s no coincidence that Donald Trump is a member of the World Wrestling Entertainment Hall of Fame.
Something like this…..?
…and thanks for the Kayfabe term.

Outstanding vanity! Thanks for your time and effort.
Yes, and that’s why he said today that’s he’s going to be nice after all the screeching about him not being nice.
He knows how to campaign as an insurgent in an establishment world.
He also knows the mood of the electorate is anti-establishment, not policy driven.
He is using the technique for developing public interest and excitement pioneered by the professional wrestling industry callled kayfabe. It’s worked for every small, medium and big time wrestling promoter for a century or more. And it is working for Trump today.
It’s no coincidence that Donald Trump is a member of the World Wrestling Entertainment Hall of Fame.
called a Paradigm Shift….or a whack on the side of the head with a 2X4 for those in Rio Linda.
Trumps response on any issue is instantaneous, short, sharp, and devastating…with no focus groups grilled in the making.
Thank you for this!
Good work!
Bump.

This is merely the manner in which The Donald negotiates.
First he makes a statement, or stakes out a position, that is patently silly or outrageous. Then he backs off a little, and offer something a little less ridiculous, and it sounds so much better than his first offer, that the opposition seizes upon the lesser offer, which is rather much closer to what The Donald wanted in the first place.
Seeing that The Donald has been argued into a more “reasonable” stance, the opposition, in their new-found (but false) confidence then makes a counter offer. The Donald, no fool he, then begins to pick apart the opposing position, at the fringes, and rapidly nibbling away at the edges, soon has the supposed “victory” hollowed out, and the collapse into the very position The Donald wanted in the first place.
Even if you may not like the outcome, you have to admire the technique.
I disagree....this is simply Trump as he is....no matter what venue he’s in ...will always center on him ..it’s his nature.
Here's a logo
I read it a long time ago and i bought his latest book. I guess it’ one reason why none of his actions/statements surprise me.
Thank you, great information. I do need to buy this book.
That's obvious. We disagree that it's a good thing are smart if you want to be elected president.
Very good post. One of Trump’s political strategies appears to be to not care about antagonizing voters who aren’t going to vote for you anyway because they aren’t going to vote for you anyway.
Markedly different than the usual GOP pndering and groveling.
Very insightful - I’m wondering if he’s already bought up all the airtime next summer so his opponents can’t try and redefine him.
More to the point he purposely antagonizes them to get the free publicity. Now some mysterious group is going to do some attack ads. Good luck with that. And Trump gets free publicity from the Washington Post!
