How Elizabeth Warren Got Trolled By Trump
by Joe Jarvis - October 18, 2018
You can’t out-troll a world-class troll. And Trump is the most successful troll in recorded history.
Not the kind of troll that lives under bridges and can be tricked by billy goats.
A troll is someone who puts on a straight face and says whatever he needs to in order to get a reaction from his target.
A good troll will take a position he may not actually believe in order to make those who actually believe it look ridiculous.
I think Donald Trump actually does believe some or even most of what he says.
But look at his trolling in a more abstract sense.
It says, look, this is your political system. Look how easy it was for me to take control of the wheel. And I did it all while making a joke of the whole thing.
