“Israel’s” Minister of Strategic Affairs, Ron Dermer, a close ally of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, reportedly spoke “with his usual arrogance” to senior Republican officials, detailing what US President Donald Trump “must do", according to Yanir Cozin, a diplomatic correspondent for Israeli Army Radio, who cited a senior Israeli official.
However, Dermer’s approach appears to have backfired. Trump’s inner circle reportedly told him that “Netanyahu is manipulating the American president,” a characterization that did not sit well with Trump.
The cited official noted that “Trump hates nothing more than appearing to be manipulated.”
Hah, stupid dummies made the simplest mistake in the book. With a baby like Trump, you can’t make demands. If you try to make demands, he’ll feel like he’s not a big powerful man, and he’ll try and reassert his control over the situation immediately. All the smart world leaders know that the way you manipulate Trump is by gassing him up and convincing him that he came up with your idea, so it must be the most bigly and incredible idea of all time.
I had a boss like this. Every so often when we had something that needed to be done I’d remind him of his previous idea (which didn’t exist) that we all thought was so good and he’s the bestest and smartest manager ever.
It was so easy to get whatever I wanted done.
This guy manipulates morons.
