  • It's called mirroring. It's where the speaker -consciously or subconsciously- imitates the tone, vernacular, and movements of the listener. Lean in when they lean in, use their speech patterns and vocab, etc; it's an effective psychological tool to manufacture a connection when done well. When done poorly it comes off as insulting, mocking, and patronizing (like what AOC did).

    Trump does it well. Saw him speak on one of his visits to the South. He has said "Roll Tide!" a few dozen times and will use words like "y'all", "reckon", "yonder", etc, etc. and avoids those words when in other areas.

      • well the reason I wear jeans and boots when I go sell at farms is not because of that per say. If you have even been on a farm, you would know that you don't show up in a suit and dress shoes. not unless you want cow shit on your nice dress shoes. they also wouldn't be receptive. they are extremely leery of outsiders and city folk, but I don't talk any different.
