Apparently he is unaware that win-win scenario’s can be beneficial.

Just my thoughts.

And good thoughts, they are.

Win-win is how all successful negotiations proceed, unless “unconditional surrender” is on the table as it was with Germany and Japan in 1945.

For Trump, it seems, most negotiations are about unconditional surrender. Even if he poses them as “win-win”, you can’t trust him to hold up his side of the bargain (just ask New York contractors).

For Trump, he has to win and you have to lose.

Always.

Even if you have professed undying fealty to him. Eventually, he is going to screw you.

This is the thinking that brings on wars.
