A: Trump is easily misled by those of eloquent persuasion. Hopefully others will show him the facts.
This reminded me of chapter 81 from the Tao Te Ching:
Sincere words are not beautiful; beautiful words are not sincere.
Good men are not argumentative, the argumentative are not good.
One who knows is not erudite; the erudite one does not know.
The sage does not take to hoarding.
The more he lives for others, the fuller is his life.
The more he gives, the more he abounds.
The Way of Heaven benefits and does not harm.
The Way of the sage works and does not compete with anyone.
- Translated by Tien Cong Tran, Chapter 81
