Executive Clarity Coach Explains Trump's Not-So-Secret Weapon and How It Helped Him Win the Election


 

Why Trump Won the Election: The Secret Weapon

When Donald Trump secured his victory in the election, many political analysts were left scratching their heads. But for those who understand the art of communication, the answer was clear: the simplicity and clarity of Trump's message won people's hearts. It cut through the noise and deeply resonated with millions.

We spoke to Iryana, a sought-after Clarity Coach and CEO of Screw Leadership Consulting Company, whose work involves helping entrepreneurs, C-level executives, and creative professionals refine their goals and message. To her, the reason for Trump's victory was clear:

"Trump's messaging wasn't bogged down by complexity or nuance—it was direct, memorable, and emotional. His slogan, ‘Make America Great Again,' is a perfect example. It wasn't just a tagline; it was a rallying cry that people could understand and, more importantly, feel. People often underestimate the clarity of their message. It's not just a way or style of communicating—it's a Superpower! When your message is clear, it has the power to move, persuade, and inspire. In Trump's case, it was the foundation of his success."

The Power of Clarity: Why It Matters

Let's face it: the modern world is chaotic. We're bombarded with information, opinions, and noise from every direction. In this environment, clarity is like a beam of light in a fog—it stands out, grabs attention, and leads the way. Most importantly, it makes the message relatable.

Trump didn't try to please everyone. Instead, he honed in on specific themes and delivered them in a way that resonated deeply with his base. It wasn't just what he said—it was how clearly he said it.

Think of all the successful brands and leaders you know. They communicate with simplicity and focus. Apple doesn't sell "computers with advanced specs"—it sells "tools to think differently." Oprah Winfrey doesn't talk about "media dominance"—she shares stories that "help you live your best life."

The same principle applies in politics: people don't vote for policy manuals; they vote for what they can understand and feel.

Iryana shares:

"As I often tell my clients: ‘The clearer your message, the stronger your impact.' Trump's campaign demonstrated this truth on a grand scale."

Trump's Clarity in Action

If there's one slogan everyone remembers from Trump's campaign, it's "Make America Great Again." These four words are deceptively simple but incredibly effective. Why? Because they accomplish three things:

  1. They evoke emotion: "Great" speaks to nostalgia and pride. People may disagree on what greatness looks like, but the sentiment strikes a chord.
  2. They suggest a clear problem and solution: The message implies that America has fallen and needs to rise again, painting a clear before-and-after picture. With inflation hitting every American hard, the idea that America is in trouble became an unquestionable fact.
  3. They're easy to repeat: A message that can fit on a baseball cap will travel far and wide.

Trump didn't just stop at slogans. His campaign speeches and social media posts followed the same principle. He used plain language, often repeating key phrases like "build the wall" or "drain the swamp." Critics mocked the simplicity, but therein lay the genius.

Clarity doesn't require complexity. In fact, it thrives without it. This stood in stark contrast to his opponents, whose messaging often felt dense and policy-heavy. While they were explaining, he was connecting.

Why Clarity Works: Insights from a Clarity Coach

"In my coaching practice, I often encounter individuals and businesses struggling to communicate their value. They think they need to explain every detail to be taken seriously. But the truth is, too much information overwhelms people. Clarity isn't just about what you say—it's about what you leave out."

As a clarity coach, Iryana likes to remind people:

"Clarity isn't dumbing it down; it's lighting it up."

Trump's campaign illuminated his priorities with precision. His clarity didn't make his ideas universally agreeable, but it made them universally recognizable. Whether you supported him or opposed him, you understood what he stood for.

This is a lesson for all of us, not just in politics but in life. Whether you're pitching a product, building a brand, or leading a team, the clearer your message, the stronger your connection with your audience.

Lessons for Leaders and Communicators

The brilliance of Trump's campaign lies in a principle that transcends politics: people gravitate toward what they can understand. Here's how you can apply this principle in your own life:

  1. Focus on the core idea: What's the one thing you want people to take away? Everything else is secondary.
  2. Speak their language: Use words and ideas that resonate with your audience's experiences and emotions.
  3. Keep it memorable: If they can't repeat your message after hearing it once, it's too complicated.

Trump's victory wasn't just a political triumph; it was a masterclass in the power of clarity. As we navigate a world filled with competing messages, this is the lesson to carry forward: clarity wins.

Whether you're addressing a nation, launching a brand, or simply having a conversation, remember this: clarity isn't just nice to have—it's the key to winning hearts and minds.
