On the surface, and several layers deep as well, Trump appears to be a narcissistic blow-hard with inadequate credentials to lead a country. The only problem with my analysis is that there is an eerie consistency to his success so far. Is there a method to it? Is there some sort of system at work under the hood? Probably yes. Allow me to describe some of the hypnosis and persuasion methods Mr. Trump has employed on you. (Most of you know I am a trained hypnotist and this topic is a hobby of mine.) For starters, Trump literally wrote the book on negotiating, called The Art of the Deal. So we know he is familiar with the finer points of persuasion. For our purposes today, persuasion, hypnosis, and negotiating all share a common set of tools, so I will conflate them. Would Trump use his negotiation and persuasion skills in the campaign? Of course he would. And we expect him to do just that. But where is the smoking gun of his persuasion? Where is his technique laid out for us to see. Everywhere. As I said in my How to Fail book, if you are not familiar with the dozens of methods of persuasion that are science-tested, there’s a good chance someone is using those techniques against you. […] If you’re keeping score, in the past month Trump has bitch-slapped the entire Republican Party, redefined our expectations of politics, focused the national discussion on immigration, proposed the only new idea for handling ISIS, and taken functional control of FOX News. And I don’t think he put much effort into it. Imagine what he could do if he gave up golf. As far as I can tell, Trump’s “crazy talk” is always in the correct direction for a skilled persuader. When Trump sets an “anchor” in your mind, it is never random. And it seems to work every time. Now that Trump owns FOX, and I see how well his anchor trick works with the public, I’m going to predict he will be our next president. I think he will move to the center on social issues (already happening) and win against Clinton in a tight election. Click for Full Text!

Trump will walk away with it. And he will be the greatest president since FDR when he actually takes the office. He will hold it for eight years, and his veep will succeed him. It's "High Noon" in America. Vicomte13  posted on  2015-08-16   9:31:14 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #2. To: Vicomte13 (#1) FDR You're a liberal.

The Republicans did not want to fight the Axis and resisted armament. FDR outfoxed them to get the country ready for war, fought the war and won it. FDR put into place Social Security and Unemployment insurance. He established the TVA that electrified a vast region of the South. With the WPA he put millions of Americans back to work. FDR was the greatest President of the 20th Century, by far. Do you know who agreed with me? Ronald Reagan agreed with me on that. HE was an FDR Democrat. Newt Gingrich agrees on that too. I'm a realist. Vicomte13  posted on  2015-08-16   9:37:04 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #8. To: Vicomte13, A K A Stone (#3) FDR was the greatest President of the 20th Century, by far. FDR is one of the worst presidents. If not for WWII he would have gone down in flames. He is the "give me" or "buy your vote with other peoples money" candidate like LBJ and Obama. FDR made the great depression worse by allowing it to drag on and on and on. Like I said if not for WWII FDR would have gone down as one of the worst. If you treated your children like progressives treat America they would have drug-up worthless unproductive children that act like whores. JMHO The presidents that tried to interfere the least are the best. The only exception is President Reagan who had to undo so much but got shafted by his own party and namely bush.

To: Justified (#8) The Republicans held the White House continually from right after World War I until 1932. The Great Depression hit in 1929. In 1929, 1930, 1931, 1932 - all the way to early 1933, the Republicans controlled the White House and the rest of the government. They controlled the Supreme Court for awhile longer. And during all of that time, the Republicans had stewardship over the whole government, and over dealing with the Great Depression. They controlled the government for the first four full years of the Depression - their policies CREATED the Depression - the Democrats controlled nothing. And then the Republicans were completely hapless, unable to fix it. Things got worse and worse, unemployment ballooned to over a quarter of the workforce. People were desperate, and the homeless assembled into vast camps that became called "Hoovervilles", because Hoover and the Republicans were incapable of doing anything about it. They were trapped by their own ideology, and things got worse and worse. FDR was elected in 1932, and took office in 1933, and began to change things. The TVA and WPA put people to work. Unemployment benefits considerably softened the blow. Social Security addressed the poverty of workers too old to work. Then came World War II, and as it came, the Republicans in Congress and all across the country mightily resisted any US participation. They opposed involvement. They insisted upon neutrality against Hitler and Tojo, while those two divvied up the world. Isolationism was a Republican policy. FDR prepared the country for war, and did what he could to shore up the future allies abroad against the onslaught. Overage destroyers were "Lent-leased" to Britain. General Chennault took the "unofficial" Flying Tigers with their P-40 warhawks over to fight for China against the Japanese invasion. When the war came, America was ready, thanks to FDR. Had the government followed Republican policy, the United States would have been ill prepared for the war as France and the Soviet Union were. FDR launched the Manhattan Project to develop the Atomic Bomb. He decided on the "Europe First" policy, even though Japan had actually attacked America at Pearl Harbor. He picked the right military leaders, sacked the weak ones, and plotted out the victory. And we won, big. He was the greatest President of the 20th Century. The Republican beliefs set us up for the Depression and were powerless to address it, and had the Republicans gotten their way, Hitler would have overrun Europe, and Japan would have conquered China, Southeast Asia, India, and Australia. Republican economics did not work in the 19th Century: they resulted in crony capitalism. They did not work before FDR. Indeed, they made FDR NECESSARY. And they have never worked since. the momentary flush of growth when taxes and regulations are slashed too deeply turns into a flash in the pan, creating a bubble that then bursts every time. But Republican ideologues never learn. Vicomte13  posted on  2015-08-16   13:52:18 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #15. To: Vicomte13 (#10) I wish I had more time. No he was not the best or even close to the best president. The reason for the depression was government interference in pricing. The dust-bowl/great-depression like the stock market crash of today come directly from government sticking its nose into the market casing it to expand out of control until something like 911 or the dust bowl come to remind people government is always the problem and almost never the solution. It was WWI that started government pricing and telling via pricing what farms were going to farm and abnormal demand cause farms and newbie farms to over farm the land which made the dust bowl and depression worse. BTW it was FDR that stack the USSC to get his way or did they not teach that in your school books? His SS is a scam. You would be better off sticking that money in a bank and drawning 1% than taking what they give you when you retire. All progressives do is take from the hard working productive and give to the POS people who pissed away their life because they knew that someone else was going to take care of them. As government gets bigger and takes more in the name of poverty the more good people have less to give those in true need! Which as a Christian really pisses me off!

It also provides disability insurance for workers, and a survivor benefit to spouses and children of workers. Qualification is automatic and there's no pre-existing condition exception. Also, the benefits are adjusted for inflation over time. No product exists in the private market that comes close to all of these benefits of Social Security. It's the best investment in Security that every worker ever makes. Your 1% figure is a bunch of hooey. Do the math and you'll see.

To: Vicomte13 (#17) It also provides disability insurance for workers, and a survivor benefit to spouses and children of workers. Millions of Americans are broke and can't make ends meet because they have to pay for stuff like you mentioned above. You are for stealing from them and keeping them down so that the middle man can take a cut and distribute it to someone else. You're a progressive like Karl Marx. A K A Stone  posted on  2015-08-16   23:25:26 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #21. To: A K A Stone (#19) I am for following Jesus' and YHWH's law of economics to the letter, because they're God and they are much smarter than we are about these things. Also, because they're God, they reward those who obey them by making things work better for them. When one obeys God, and makes a purpose of it, one has better crop yields, better discoveries, less damaging weather, etc. God rewards those who follow him with favors. But he punishes those who defy him with blows. Follow God's law, and God provides the extra productivity of fields, mines and minds, working in brotherly cooperation, to make things work. Refuse to follow God's law and insist on something else, and God gives you dust bowls, diseases, hurricanes and floods, and social unrest, all to make it such that your preferred path cannot work out.
