TRUMP LOOKS FOR AND USES POSTURING TO DRIVE OPPONENTS INTO “FAIR DEALS”.

If you posture or virtue signal, Trump will humiliate you for it. Trump takes posturing off the table. He is a master of it. And his response is always the same: “lets just do a fair deal”. This is a variation on “The Last Moral Man” negotiating tactic. This strategy is almost impossible to defeat. Which is one of the reasons it’s helpful to have a larger number of people involved in any negotiation – so that people posture themselves into traps, which you can then use against them.
