He’s playing them like a fiddle. You know why I know this?

Yesterday at the Trump Pence rally,
Trump said something for the first time. He was talking again about the press and said “You know, I know a lot of things about why the press does what they do. Maybe I should write a book about it.”

It all about the Art of the Deal. You throw stuff out there, and then you negotiate. This thing with Ryan, “I’m not quite there yet.” Was an opening to negotiate. I’m sure behind the scenes they got things straight. I’ll endorse you, but you stop the stuff behind my back to undermine our chances of winning.

I’m using his techniques in my life as well. Small example. I buy vintage guitars. But it could be a house you’re buying. You MUST, you MUST be prepared to walk away. You start with an outrageous offer, close to insulting the person. You find quickly what their bottom line is.

This, “We’re going to build a wall and Mexico is going to pay for it.” or “We’re going to build encampments (can’t think of the word), for the refugees, and Saudi
Arabia is going to pay for it.” or “Japan is going to pay 100% of the defense we provide.” etc. There will be a negotiation at some point, and at some point both sides will get something. AND IN THE END IT WILL BE TEN TIMES BETTER THAN WHAT WE’VE HAD WITH THE INCOMPETENT OBAMA AND PATHETIC JOHN KERRY.

That plane flying in with all that money is an embarrassment beyond belief, and thenyou have the president trying to tell us, that the money had to be flown in, in the dark, small bills, cash, because we have no banking relationship with IRAN.

What if the plane had been shot down? What then?

Dumb@sses beyond belief.

Do you sell those guit-fiddles too? Ever get a decent Taylor?

You are right on his negotiation technique. It works in all aspects of life, not just buy/sell/trade deals. Love works like that. The one who is more willing to walk away, is the one in total control.

Interesting thought about what he has on the press - but I think it isn;t much more than they do what they do just to get ratings.

Think about this. If the US had no “banking relationship” with Iran, how did they send Iran all that money in that awful “Iran Deal” that John Kerry brags about and DJT deplores? How was the money transferred for that deal? No one holds O’s stinky feet to the fire.
