In "Win Bigly," Scott Adams, the mastermind behind the iconic Dilbert comic strip and a trained hypnotist with a deep understanding of persuasion, provides a riveting exploration of the artistry behind Donald Trump's unexpected ascent to the presidency. Adams steps beyond the boundaries of conventional political analysis, focusing instead on the persuasive techniques that propelled an underdog to the highest office in the land against all odds. With keen insight, he dissects the strategies that Trump employed, strategies so powerful they're likened to accessing the admin passwords to the human psyche. This book is not just about politics; it's a master class in the mechanics of persuasion, applicable in countless contexts beyond the political arena. Adams invites readers to consider persuasion in a new light, presenting tools that can turn the tide in any debate or enhance the impact of any message. "Win Bigly" delves into the psychology that triggers our biases and guides our decision-making, teaching us how to harness these forces for our own purposes. From the importance of emotional appeal over factual accuracy to the power of linguistic precision in shaping perception, Adams lays out a roadmap for persuasive success. Whether you're looking to understand the 2016 election's seismic shift, hone your own persuasive skills, or simply resist the sway of master persuaders in your life, "Win Bigly" offers a fascinating, thought-provoking journey into the influence of persuasion in the modern world.

[One of the] best books I read in 2017. - Anthony Pompliano
We humans like to think we are creatures of reason. We aren't. The reality is that we make our decisions first and rationalize them later....Your illusion of being a rational person is supported by the fact that sometimes you do act rationally.
