In reply to the discussion: Trump: I turned down Time's 'Person of the Year' [View all]BigmanPigman
(51,562 posts)50. That is what immediately came to my mind.
Foreign leaders know that they way to deal with him is through his enormous ego so they roll out the red carpet, parades, gold everything, etc. Maybe if the Dems did the same we could fool him into doing our bidding for us in a round about way. I heard that Chuck and Nancy meet with him along with Mitch and Paul next week. Should they pretend to kiss his feet to get what we want? Is he stupid enough to fall for it if they do attempt to try the flattery treatment?

Won't be. Mueller has been working, not making news. Trump has been making news and not working.

Now when he doesn't get it, his supporters will believe Trump and attack Time.
