Pretty much.  He's not the typical career politician who plays by the customary book.

He's not afraid to knock the enemy off center to get leverage.  It's in Art of the Deal.  It's just business.

When folks overreact to Trump, it's Trump forcing their hand.  Both friend and foe.  He then comes back closer to the center, which relieves them and he gets what he wanted to begin with.

He pulls the rod, then reels in the slack line.

To me, his Twitter is like a duck call.  He quacks, and they all come flying in.  And he picks them off.
