Three-Dimensional Chess

Someone on social media was wondering why President Trump capitalizes words that shouldn’t be capitalized. 

The answer, of course, is that he is the world’s foremost expert on the development of grammar in West Germanic languages and he intuitively understands the complex relationship between capitalization, philosophy, economics, and the evolution of western political thought. Every character of every tweet is painstakingly calibrated to communicate precisely the correct message to precisely the correct audience.  He is playing three-dimensional chess while his detractors are playing chutes and ladders. Either that, or he’s an idiot.
