The Just Human Podcast Episode #2

Kayfabe
10

‘In professional wrestling, kayfabe, as a noun, is the portrayal of staged events within the industry as "real" or "true", specifically the portrayal of competition, rivalries, and relationships between participants as being genuine and not staged. The term kayfabe has evolved to also become a code word of sorts for maintaining this "reality" within the direct or indirect presence of the general public. Kayfabe, in the United States, is often seen as the suspension of disbelief that is used to create the non-wrestling aspects of promotions, such as feuds, angles, and gimmicks in a manner similar to other forms of fictional entertainment.’ (source)

I posit to you, that not only does Trump use kayfabe, almost ALL of our politicians use kayfabe.

It’s just that Trump uses it better than anyone ever has and he uses it AGAINST the Deep State.
