I resent Trump treating everyone like a mark.

[no_hypocrisy]

Scamming, grifting like a no-class thief. Telling Canadian Prime Minister that the U.S. has a trade deficit with his country and telling South Korea to alter its commerce to give the U.S. more money or we'll pull out our military after 65+ years. Trump doesn't think that his ploys are transparent? That's his idea of negotiating "really beautiful deals" by bluffing and extortion?

1. 'resent'...oh, I am well past 'resentment'. Suffer the judgement of those who commit

TREASON.

Kushner in his Qatar blockade extortion for 500,000?!

Fry them all

[0rganism]

2. apparently, that's his only way of treating others

if the others aren't marks, then they're not his "target audience" and everything they say is "fake news". that's his ninja way.

for the actual marks, his schtick works pretty well and they believe both his basic assertions and the corollary that those who disagree are not to be trusted.

as the marks wise up, Trump becomes less and less relevant. his primary goal is to destroy America on behalf of Mr. Putin before that happens.

we're getting Barnum & Bailey'd into oblivion.

3. He is at huge, sincere disadvantage. He listens to nobody unless they continuously complement him

while talking to him, he then will forget everything they said in 3 minutes.

He then proceeds to negotiate which really means he just starts blabbing, promising, lying, etc. In his former business life he could do this and get away with it, most stopped doing business with him because they knew he was an outright liar, thief and criminal.

When he discusses any topic, and I do mean any, he has no information about it at all, knows absolutely nothing, and just blabs his stupid mouth.

We now know his college professor called him the stupidest person he ever dealt with in his life. Anyone who supports him is equally stupid and equally a TRAITOR
