Analysis: Fox News Sunday Interview Promotion (2016-12-11)

A routine, low-intensity promotional post announcing a scheduled Fox News Sunday interview with Chris Wallace. The post is straightforward scheduling information with minimal psychological content.

Authorship

Posted at 12:56 UTC = 7:56 AM EST. Trump was likely in New York (Trump Tower) during the transition period. Early morning Sunday timing is consistent with authentic Trump — he commonly tweets upon waking before aides are active. The "ENJOY!" sign-off is characteristic Trump enthusiasm. However, the post is well-formatted and grammatically correct, which could indicate either Trump or an aide. The exclamation and direct audience address lean authentic.

Psychological State

This is a maintenance/supply-seeking post. Promoting a major network interview serves narcissistic supply — drawing attention to his platform and importance. The "ENJOY!" command positions him as providing entertainment/value to followers, consistent with grandiose self-presentation.

Context

The previous day's posts show him combating CNN "FAKE NEWS" about The Apprentice and promoting a prior Chris Wallace clip from October 2015 — this interview promotion is a continuation of that thread, pivoting from defensive posture to self-promotion.

Rhetorical Notes

Minimal rhetorical complexity. The imperative "ENJOY!" functions as both audience engagement and implicit self-congratulation — the assumption that his appearance is inherently enjoyable reflects baseline grandiosity.
