“The January 17, 1984 letter to his fellow USFL team owners did encapsulate what became Donald Trump’s three-step rhetorical style, a pattern so predictable and unique it could be branded “Trump Logic.” First, he confidently makes an assertion that often oversimplifies or ignores the truth of the matter. He builds upon that soft foundation with an act of clairvoyance, claiming to know what large groups of people fear, or at whom they laugh, as proof that his original assertion was true. Finally, he closes the deal by making clear that disagreeing with his un-facts or his psychic vision is prima facie evidence of stupidity.” TrumpCharlatansTrumpismTrump QuotesBoobsTrump Popularity ExplainedDonald Trump PresidentDonald J TrumpU S PresidentNincompoop Book:Lucky Loser: How Donald Trump Squandered His Father's Fortune and Created the Illusion of Success Source: Lucky Loser: How Donald Trump Squandered His Father's Fortune and Created the Illusion of Success
