[QUOTE="LA_Geezer, post: 4901228, member: 89393"]Another erudite member here quoted P. T. Barnum the other day and I praised the use of the Circusmaster's most famous saying, given that this is already late 2020 and he proved beyond a shadow that there are some still alive who remember that quip. For a person to be disingenuous, though, is entirely different from recognizing that suckers come and go in any of a thousand different aspects of life. Tricking somebody into doing something that he might not otherwise do—like candidates making promises they have no intention of keeping to get your vote, for example—is disingenuous. Anyone who has ever gone through a professional selling skills course knows that in order for the seller to close a potential customer he must discover what features will benefit and thus persuade his target to accept.
