    Few more things about this thread worth mentioning: - I don't think he's doing it on purpose. This is a dialect of sorts.https://twitter.com/EmilyGorcenski/status/833282921339432960 …

    Trump doesn't speak in full, coherent sentences, because he's speaking a different language, one his followers understand but we don't.

        - We don't recognize the dialect because we don't expect it. In the same way, many would be stunned (to say the least) if a pres. used AAVE.

        - It's not because he's uneducated. He's degreed from a very good school. - It's not because he's mentally ill, many people talk like this.

        - It's simply that he's speaking a coercive/convincing form of English where a social contract is implicit.

        I don't think it's a dogwhistle, either. Dogwhistles send specific messages in subtext coded by social contract. This isn't that.

        It's the non-specificity that makes it noteworthy. It's that the listener can inject *their* interpretation and receive a validation.

        The closest thing I can compare this to, tbh, is Twilight. Bella's character was written to be a blank slate so she appealed to every reader

        The character was given few defining traits other than that she was in the in-group of the target audience. Readers saw themselves in her.

        This is what Trump's speeches are. His base sees their views in him; they see their vision of how to run the country in what he says.

        They don't have to understand foreign policy. They make an opinion and see it in the President. By virtue of office, they feel it's legit.

        The result of this is that to combat this, we need to change *their* perceptions, not Trump's actions. We need to engage his base.

        Simply defeating Trump in court or in the voting booth won't change those beliefs, leaving us vulnerable to the next demagogue.

        "Trumpspeak" actually has a name - "The Milton Model" from neurolinguistic programming. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_neuro-linguistic_programming#Milton_model …

        There's a connection with the "pick-up artist" culture via Ross Jeffries.

        It's a 2nd grade reading level. Short sentences, and repeating them for emphasis, even when not needed. Echolalia, maybe.

        @sandymaxey That seems spot-on, since Trump supporters have always projected their own desires on a blank candidate.
