There is an old American joke about a farmer selling a mule.
He says to a prospective buyer that the mule is a very good worker and is very cooperative but you have to treat it gently for best results.
When the prospective buyer asks for a demonstration, the farmer walks over to the mule, takes a large stick and swats the mule beside the head.
“Wait a minute,” says the buyer. “I thought you said you have to treat it gently to get the
best results.” “Of course,” says the farmer, “but first you have to get its attention.”
Trump played the game superbly preaching what wage earners wanted to hear to gain their attention, no one buys pre election bs clinton and trump both know that so the critical bit is to get their attention. Donald accomplished that and with hillarys' baggage weighing her down the stage was set for media mourning sessions and fully expected watering down of campaign bs. His bluster got the job done and now its' time to be conciliatory, he may not be a politician but he sure knows politics.
