    • Being friendly

    • Appearing to be a normal human being to avoid seeming creepy, offputting, wooden, etc.

    • Trying to be funny

    • Trying to have a sense of humor

        Plus - he's a natural born performer. He and his team borrowed an idea from standup comedy. As Trump is giving speeches he's always working on his new material. He's going with what works. If the audience likes it - repeat it: lock her up, build a war, etc. Trump doesn't even care what the words are as long as his audiences like it. It's kind of petrifying because one day Trump will realize that phrases like "kill them all" are fantastic because his audiences go into a frenzy when they hear them.

        I don't know if it's happened more than once. The comment I saw mentioned cockroaches coming out his mouth. And I was annoyed because that was perfect and it would have never occurred to me.

          I'm almost certain it happened more than once, and i actually was about to post "damn he looks like the roach from MiB" first time i saw somebody else on here comment that. It's just how he comes off.
