Gary Stevenson makes a good point that leads me to ask – is this how we understand what Donald Trump is doing?
The question Gary addresses in his latest video clip is what Trump is hoping to achieve by making lots of wild pronouncements and not following up on them.
He uses his experience trying to get out of working at Citibank to illustrate what he believes to be the answer. Watch:
So Trump is basically saying whatever he thinks will persuade other people to give him what he wants and, rather than be sucked into his power game, we should step back and ask ourselves what he could possibly achieve for himself (or his descendants) by saying what he does.
Then we’ll know how to respond. Good point?
