(4,341 posts)I am not into deceiving people, but the con-Trump is.
By the way, I am not taking your remark as offensive...I am just answering your question.
I don't know that is Trump so much that gets away with that bull because of his own doing, I believe it is the corrupt media which controls the masses.
I listened to the NPR news yesterday and they had 10 seconds of Hillary Clinton, but two minutes of the conman. That is the real problem, the media is using this guy as an audience grabber, and that is why he can get away with the vile behaviour he exposes every day.
So...I don't think it is his cleverness, it is the corrupt media doing it.
You can always tell if someone is clever or not by the way they express themselves, and Trump fails miserably at that.
