From Dan Rather:

Last paragraph, although the entire piece is a good read:

To call Trump a con man, as many have, is a disservice to the art of the con. By its definition a con requires deceit. But Trump has not tried to hide his lies or the sheer unrealistic audacity of his cartoonish policy positions. He has asked the American people to bet on him. The fact checkers will certainly weigh in. The pundits will have their say. But the voters have all the information they need. The judgement is in their - or more accurately our - hands.

1. I love a good con man

Trump is a bully. Not so keen on those.

2. Con is short for "confidence man" meaning you have confidence in someone that they won't con you.

that's how a good con works. the con man gains your confidence.

tRump is not a con man.

he's the human equivalent of a bull in a china shop.
