There is a lot more that makes him different from the average politician.

It’s only Trump’s delivery that makes him different.

Really?!

Within the scope of how he uses rhetoric to get what he wants, yes. There are things outside his rhetoric that make him different,

outside his rhetoric? what about on the bs he spews on twitter? I think that makes him different.

but within the context of lying for political gain, I don’t see how he’s all that different from what’s come before besides his chosen delivery.

How about how often he lies? How about how blatantly?

He’s described in private conversations as exceedingly polite, even meek. Doesn’t fit at all with the portrayal of him being a monster

He has only himself to blame for the portrayal of him being a monster.

and implies his public persona is what he feels it needs to be to accomplish his goals.

I don’t see how acting like an arrogant, smug, rude, chauvinistic, selfish jerk accomplishes anything.
