1. @realDonaldTrump -unpolished & crude.
He is NOT dumb.
His mltpl bsns successes were more than "just luck."
To understand Trump
the Austrian School of Economics concept of 'entrepreneurship' is useful.
An entrepreneur possesses an acute anticipative understanding of the future

2. @POTUS is viewed as a great negotiator.
But what is a great negotiator?
Its someone who understands the opposing side’s needs, wants, strengths & weaknesses as well as, or better than, they do.
These are not provided; they must be discovered.

3. An “acute anticipative understanding of the future” is necessary to ascertain them. Then, the ability to 'play off' these to obtain your objectives (the easy part of negotiating) comes into play.

4. The 2016 Republican primary field was arguably the strongest in history. Despite this, @realDonaldTrump saw something & decided to make it his 1st serious foray into politics. What others saw as stupid or grandstanding, Trump correctly perceived as an opportunity.

5. Once in the primary race, @realDonaldTrump employed a style & method of debating & campaigning that violated every 'accepted' norm. Political experts ridiculed him & said he wasn’t serious.

No one gave him a chance of getting the nomination.

6. Then pundits were sure he could not win using his self-designed tools & methods against Hillary Clinton.

Clinton was considered a certain winner & deemed likely to embarrass @realDonaldTrump who was expected to lose by historic proportions.

7. Few are entrepreneurs in the Austrian sense. We cannot see what true entrepreneurs see. To us, @realDonaldTrump ’s decision to run for political office seemed foolish, perhaps an ego trip.

8. Most people his age would be slowing down and enjoying their wealth with family & grandchildren. Instead, @realDonaldTrump became the only man in recent history to take a PAYCUT and LESS luxurious living conditions to become @POTUS .

9. @realDonaldTrump entered politics to win.
He always expects to win, regardless of the venue.
Did he realize the implications of winning?
As an outsider, he likely knew he would never be accepted by an elite ruling class.

10. The fact that @realDonaldTrump was decisive and outspoken made him more onerous. No "man of action" is welcome in the politically elite realm-dominated by pomposity, imagery corruption and inaction.

But he's cleaning house-& needs US!🇺🇸

11. @realDonaldTrump did not run to become a part of this exclusive Club.
He openly despised their pretensions and incompetence.
He came to break things.
His opportunity to be co-opted by the Deep State and become a part of it was renounced years ago.

12. That was not an option @realDonaldTrump wanted, nor one that would ever be offered to him
The fact that he was brazen enough to run made him a target
What if othrs were encouraged by his impertinence?
Winning made matters worse
He had to be made an exmpl & destroyed quickly.

13. Perhaps @realDonaldTrump knew all this when he dared compete w/the professional crime syndicate we call "public servants."

Regardless, he knows it now, and knows he's in
a Death Match against
the Washington Establishment.
Only one will survive.

14. It appears to be the kind of contest that @realDonaldTrump loves.
