August 5: 7 Takeaways from Vanity Fair’s 1990 Profile of Donald Trump

When pressed on awkward topics--such as whether or not he regularly read Adolf Hitler's speeches--he turns skittish and, perhaps, inventive

Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler’s speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist.

“Did your cousin John give you the Hitler speeches?” I asked Trump.

Trump hesitated. “Who told you that?”

“I don’t remember,” I said.

“Actually, it was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of Mein Kampf, and he’s a Jew.” (“I did give him a book about Hitler,” Marty Davis said. “But it was My New Order, Hitler’s speeches, not Mein Kampf. I thought he would find it interesting. I am his friend, but I’m not Jewish.”)

Later, Trump returned to this subject. “If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them.”

February 5: Fox News pulls plug on Trump tax cut speech to break news of massive stock market sell-off

As Trump was in Ohio to tout the impact of the new Republican tax laws, Fox News cut away from his remarks to report that the Dow was plunging.

“We are interrupting for breaking news,” Fox News anchor Shep Smith said. “There is quite a drop happening on Wall Street. A massive sell-off is happening today.”

March 10: President Donald Trump arrived in western Pennsylvania on Saturday night with a message for the Republican running there: Don't embarrass me.

He opened his whirlwind speech by touting his administration's new tariffs -- 25% on steel imports and 10% on aluminum imports -- before wading into the issues surrounding North Korea, previewing his 2020 campaign slogan, discussing the merits of giving drug dealers the death penalty and attacking a series of familiar targets.

He called NBC host Chuck Todd -- who he's nicknamed "sleepy eyes" -- a "sleeping son of a bitch" and described Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters as a "very low IQ individual."

At one point, he mocked the idea of being "presidential."

"If I came like a stiff, you guys wouldn't come here tonight," he said.

March 11:
Pennsylvania Speech Shows Again that Trump Wants to Be a Dictator

The Donald Trump Show traveled to Moon Township, PA, on Saturday night in support of Republican state Rep. Rick Saccone ahead of a special congressional election on Tuesday. But as is usually the case with this president, the speech ended up being about Donald Trump and his insane ideas.

In a speech lasting just over an hour, Trump’s dictatorial tendencies, raging narcissism, and blatant bigotry were on full display. Unmentioned, however, were the encroaching special counsel investigation into possible collusion with Russia to disrupt the 2016 election and other crimes, and a sex scandal involving a shady hush money payoff to a porn star by Trump’s personal lawyer.

April 22: Rhetoric scholars pinpoint why Trump’s inarticulate speaking style is so persuasive

Richard Wilson, a professor of anthropology and law at UConn School of Law who has studied the language of demagogues worldwide, says that it’s not uncommon for populist politicians to speak in such a clunky style.

Because Trump’s style is so confusing, audiences have to pay closer attention to make sense of his words. And this focus means listeners are more likely to be persuaded, just as you’re more likely to be convinced by a lecturer if you pay close attention rather than let her words drift over you.

It’s not foolproof, of course ...
