Putin likely understands that when it comes to Trump, the fourth American president since Putin's ascension as Russia's top leader, flattery pays off — and that Trump, as recent events show, can be persuaded to agree to things that fly in the face of his advisers' counsel.

Companies like Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat are trying to convert meat eaters, people for whom a disintegrating vegetable patty is in no way appealing but who might be persuaded to cut down on their meat intake if the substitute foods mimicked the experience of eating meat.

In Iowa, Mr. Sanders has largely opted out of the cattle-call events that have drawn most of the presidential field, forgoing opportunities to make his case to both undecided attendees and supporters of other candidates who might be persuaded to pick Mr. Sanders as a second choice.
|
|
What is more revealing is how many in the party are not yet settled on a candidate: The Times/Siena poll of Iowa, where voters are paying closest attention to the race, found that roughly two-thirds of likely caucusgoers could still be persuaded to change their minds.

Ingrid Seward, a royals expert whose latest book is "My Husband and I: The Inside Story of 70 Years of the Royal Marriage," suspected the prince would stubbornly resist the queen's admonitions about his driving, but would see the logic and could be persuaded to give it up.
|
|
The opposition of Mr. Johnson, Ms. Collins and others has raised hopes that a handful of Republican senators can be persuaded to torpedo this tax-cut bill in the same way that three of them sent the effort to repeal the A.C.A. down to defeat a few months ago.
|

With the Europeans and Congress unwilling to meet the president's demands (at least as articulated in the administration's somewhat confusing rollout last Friday), the JCPOA will be terminated rather than fixed if President Trump follows through with his ultimatum, which hopefully he will be persuaded not to do.
|

"Kennedy or others who voted for the stay could be persuaded in the end that the rule is authorized under the Clean Air Act; the government's task, and ours, is to convince these courts that's so," David Doniger, a director at the Natural Resources Defense Council climate, wrote in an email.

Imelda Staunton had said she needed to be persuaded to play Momma Rose in "Gypsy" — a Broadway title that shares the "Funny Girl" composer, Jule Styne — and the result was a singular commitment to the part that built across the four times I saw her perform it, closing night included.

He notes that PPEists (like David Cameron, Mrs May's predecessor, and indeed Lord Willetts) tend to concentrate on Britain's sectoral strengths—its booming service industries, its great universities, the City—whose success might trickle down to poorer areas, or into whose orbit residents of poorer areas might be persuaded to move.

Similarly, a vulnerability called FREAK, discovered in 2015, relied on the fact that many modern applications, including the default browser in Google's Android operating system and the White House's website, could be persuaded to revert to old, easily breakable cryptography installed in order to comply with long-abandoned American export regulations.
|
|
While most will probably reject the application as an inappropriate request to meddle in a state-law matter, some might be persuaded that the state court's order sows confusion and "irreparable injury" to Pennsylvania's federal elections by issuing an "eleventh-hour" requirement for a new map at a moment's notice.
|
|
Tellingly, while Le Pen does well in France's presidential elections, there are only two Front National members in its National Assembly, which elects by district à la the US or UK. So even if Trump were to be persuaded by his followers and embrace single-payer, he'd face a tough task.

When likely caucusgoers were asked if they "could still be persuaded to support another candidate," 234% overall said they could be swayed, compared with only about 220-in-212 of those behind Clinton and Sanders, suggesting O'Malley's backers were a bit more apt to say their minds could be changed.

When you look at the demographics of the Out campaign, at the demographics of the groups that might be persuaded to vote Leave as a protest at the harsh winds of globalisation—working-class people outside the big cities in traditional industrial areas—a lot of those are classic Labour voters.
|
|
Labour's official policy is against May's deal and to demand a general election, but depending on what Downing Street can offer, including the possibility of greater rights for workers written into the text, a number of Labour MPs could be persuaded to defy the official party line and back the deal.

Rooney is in the middle of a two-year contract at Everton, and even if the club and M.L.S. can agree to a transfer — or if Everton can be persuaded to let Rooney leave early — the player would still have to pass a physical before any deal could be signed.

The poll of Wisconsin and five other battleground states found that voters so far support the House holding impeachment hearings into Trump, but oppose removing him from office -- suggesting to Democrats that a relatively small set of voters exists that doesn't yet want Trump removed from office but could be persuaded.
|
|
For Democrats, there's also a straightforwardly political case for impeachment—the information an impeachment process would reveal could damage President Trump at the polls next year by mobilizing Democrats and Trump opponents, swaying whatever small share of voters might be persuaded to change their minds about Trump, or depressing Trump supporters.
|
|
That's why Democrats are struggling between being frank about Trump voters -- people who knowingly put a bigot in the White House -- and speaking hard truths about current racial divides and soft-pedaling their views about voters who chose Trump in 2016 but might be persuaded to choose differently in 2020.

But according to Havel, it serves an important function: The greengrocer had to put the slogan in his window, therefore, not in the hope that someone might read it or be persuaded by it, but to contribute, along with thousands of other slogans, to the panorama that everyone is very much aware of.

If new issues arise between India and Pakistan, it will be easier in future for Indian opinion to be persuaded of the need for strong action (or the expediency of turning a blind eye to Hindu excesses against Moslems) when Gandhi is no longer there to turn men's hearts by prayer and fasting.

If the U.K. government could be persuaded to provide financial support to the self-employed during the Coronavirus crisis, as it has already pledged for full-time employees, then Open Banking technology could be used to self-certify lost income, and therefore overcome one of the main hurdles of administering potential compensation.
|
|
So she has nothing to lose and much to gain by acting with audacity and passion, by taking risks, and by speaking over the heads of her fractious party to a nation that needs to be persuaded, as if from scratch, that the Conservatives crave power with a purpose, rather than power alone.
|
|
And there are still a sizable number of likely caucusgoers who haven't yet made up their minds: 45 percent said they could be persuaded to change their allegiance before the caucuses, and 15 percent either said they have no first choice, or aren't at all sure who they'd like to caucus for.

While I can be persuaded of the logic that France is inherently feminine and deserves the definitive article "la", and Canada is clearly a country brimming with Mounties and masculinity, hence "le" Canada, in what world of undue complexity would the breast and the vagina, the sine qua non of femininity, both be nom masculin?

The September 30 deadline is cutting close in the Senate, where Democrats can force Republicans to spend days debating the bill, but — if some of the maybes and leaning no votes can be persuaded — it is possible that Republicans could repeal Obamacare by the end of next week, fulfilling some of Democrats' worst fears as the deadline approaches.
|

And this means further in turn a need for institutions with the ability to foster democratic legitimacy—above all, the ability to clarify and make vivid the stakes of issues and arguments; to establish conditions where people can allow themselves to be persuaded about new priorities and agendas; and ultimately to forge new kinds of common sense.

Six decades before Arthur Conan Doyle killed the mad commander of the Pole-Star, another writer sent a captain sailing northward, full of hope and Hyperborean convictions: I try in vain to be persuaded that the pole is the seat of frost and desolation; it ever presents itself to my imagination as the region of beauty and delight. . . .

And if we were looking to be persuaded or illuminated before becoming complicit in the politics so many of us claim to hate, we probably didn't find it in Monday night's debate from Hempstead, New York, in which candidates confirmed the things we already thought about them and talking heads talked about two people talking with familiar pugilistic clichés.

WASHINGTON — Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh faced a whirlwind of new accusations on Wednesday that threatened to derail his nomination to the Supreme Court as key Republican senators wavered in their support and President Trump, in a rambling and combative news conference, acknowledged that he might be persuaded by the testimony of one of the judge's female accusers.

CS: I don't think you need to have a discussion with your in-laws about how you feel when they do X, Y or Z. Such a conversation has a high potential to lead to hurt feelings and the likelihood that in your desire to soothe them, you'll be persuaded to allow things to remain as they are.

In private conversations and meetings with progressive groups, many senators who knew that Judge Gorsuch would rule in a way they wouldn't like on every major issue they care about nevertheless made it clear that they entered the judiciary committee hearings willing to be persuaded to support him, or at least not stand in his way.

"He (Guaido) will be coming to the other side of the bridge with maybe a million of his supporters, and I suspect both of us, both sides, will be handing flowers to the military and the people guarding the bridge, and seeing whether they can be persuaded to do what they must realize is the right thing," Branson said.

There are no talks between AT&T and Dish about a merger, as both sides see the deal as a tough sell to be approved by regulators, though Dish could be persuaded to come to the table if co-founder and Chairman Charlie Ergen felt the risk-reward benefit was high enough, according to people familiar with the matter.

Given a choice, a majority in Northern Ireland could well be persuaded to ditch what is left of feckless and intemperate Britain and form a single Irish nation — if for no other reason than they like the benefits that come with being a small country in the E.U. Of course, many things would still have to fall in place.

If photos of famous people and the undeniable testimony of a 24-year-old aren't enough to convince you that beards are uncool, perhaps you will be persuaded by a survey finding that 67 percent of men in stylish, cutting-edge New York City have beards—as everyone knows, nothing signals the death of a trend like its extreme popularity.

I mean, I think all writers would like to reach everybody or at least the most intelligent readers or readers capable of reading without bias, of arguing with the book, let themselves be persuaded by it, or not, but let's say that an author aspires to have intelligent, intuitive and creative readers…that's what one would like most, isn't it?
|
|
Moreover, between the difficulty of recruiting and congressionally-mandated caps on manpower, the military increasingly relies on contractors to fill as many roles as possible, another factor driving up cost but also subtly increasing risk: it isn't clear that contractors (many of whom are not Americans) can be persuaded to provide services on a "hot" battlefield in a major war.

While FirstVet intended to offer a b2c service, its route to market has been via partnerships with insurance companies who offer the service to their customers as a way to potentially reduce the risk of more major pet insurance payouts, or as a touchpoint for reaching pet owners who don't have insurance cover and thus could be persuaded to sign up.

But even if you imagine that her move to the left was a cynical ploy at electability, at least her version of "electable" involved listening to the activists who make up the Democratic Party's base, rather than appealing to millionaire donors and the meager handful of Trump voters who theoretically might be persuaded to switch sides if Democrats avoid denouncing racism too strongly.

No one with half a brain ought to be persuaded by Donald Trump's sudden attempt to lie his way out of the idea that he was a leader of a conspiracy theory that President Barack Obama wasn't born in the US. On Friday, Trump used media interest in his birtherism stoking to produce an event at which Medal of Honor recipients praised him uncritically and that mostly wound up being an advertisement for his new hotel.

Several were high-concept star vehicles that dealt with mismatched pairs: "Nothing in Common" (22011), a reconciliation story with Jackie Gleason and Tom Hanks as cantankerous father and resentful son; "Overboard" (22016), which proposes that a meanspirited heiress with amnesia (Goldie Hawn) can be persuaded to believe she is the wife of a carpenter (Kurt Russell); and, most famously, "Pretty Woman" (2130), a Cinderella tale — and a gigantic hit — set in contemporary Los Angeles, about a hooker with a heart of gold (Julia Roberts) and her Prince Charming, a ruthless corporate raider (Richard Gere).

Over my months of coming and going, I encountered many of the same people again and again on Inishmaan: Ciaran O'Ceallaigh, who was raising his son on the island because he wanted him "to grow up in a true Irish-speaking environment;" Bartley Conneely, who owned 21 acres and six cows, and could easily be persuaded to give a visitor a lift to the ferry; and the pair of ladies I often saw when out walking, who cautioned me against staying too late up at the ring fort of Dun Fearbhai, lest the fairies interfere with me.
