From wrestling character to president of the White House: Trump owes his rise, according to journalist and writer Josephine Riesman, to his experience of show wrestling. She examines the close bond between Trump and the professional wrestling industry. From an early age, Trump has been a fan of professional wrestling: an entertainment sport where everything is about dragging the audience through spectacle and deceit. For Trump, this tactic has become the basis of his political approach.
