In reply to the discussion: Trump's use of hypnotic language [View all]Laughing Mirror
(4,185 posts)There is good hypnosis, which helps people in innumerable ways, and bad hypnosis, which helps only Trump.
He gets them in the trance, all the critical faculties off, and speaks directly to that persuasive part of the brain, the "subconscious" hypnotists call it, to seed in his "suggestions." Hypnotists say the subconscious has the mind of a 9-year old, so Trump uses a child's language to speak to that part of the subconscious that is most suggestive. He uses nasty labels on his opponents to get his audience to feel disgust.
He reframes everything he says to please whoever he is talking to. And when people ask for clarification, he reframes again, and people get drawn in because he knows exactly how to go for the subconscious.
He uses lots of hypnotic, persuasion techniques. He does have a certain mastery over them, no doubt.
