The weird thing about this book (so far) is that Adams appears to have no sense whatever that the things he's describing apply perfectly to his own rationalizations of his behavior and shoddy reasoning. As a book on the methods of influencing people, I dno't think this is a bad primer, but the amount author of self-insertion is... distracting.

The weirdest thing about this book is that Adams seems to have no sense that the mental issues he describes (cognitive dissonance, confirmation bias, etc.) so aptly apply to the examples he makes in defending his support of Trump. It's almost like he can't see his own reflection in the mirror. His examples are often so far disconnected from his points as to border on the nonsensical.
