If Donald Trump ever has what is known in twelve step programs as a “moment of clarity” and realizes just what a dumb a$$ he is and has been, it will probably fry what few circuits he has left and he’ll collapse. But I don’t think we have to worry about it. Honesty, let alone self-honesty, is not a trait that anybody has ever accused him of having.
Trump is the con man posing as the rich man, the n’er do well posing as a success. That’s what The Apprentice was all about, Trump posing as the avatar of the business world, when anybody else with six bankruptcies would have run and hid. But he has no shame, and moreover, doesn’t even know when a person is supposed to feel that emotion.
Trump’s most desperate posturing of all is that of a man of intellect, despite the fact that he’s an uneducated, “stunningly ignorant,” to quote John Bolton, fool. It is that last conceit that has led to Trump’s worst — or best, depending on your perspective — moments. I love this ad. This may be Meidas Touch’s best. Hit the button and stroll down memory lane.
You cannot make up a more asinine character than Donald Trump really is. He is beyond parody. He is so ridiculous these days, he’s doing a self-parody. While it’s great to laugh, and God knows we need the comic relief, let’s vote him the hell into oblivion so that we can get the business of governing and living back on track.
He is laughable. I wish he were out of power though. That’s not at all funny
No, it’s horrendous. And him screwing with the CDC and its transmission of information is beyond the pale. Everything is beyond the pale with him. The man doesn’t know what a boundary is. That’s why he’s dangerous. It’s phenomenal to me that a character like Trump is where he is. This is absolutely gobsmacking.
Barr is scaring me. And whoever is sending BOP and federal protection guys to places like Portland.
Says more about the people who voted for him and STILL support such an empty vessel, and dark soul!
Your comment about con man posing as a rich man got me to thinking. Trump is someone who has given golf a really bad name. But those of us who know the sport know of a certain figure in golf lore by the name of Walter Hagan who made his mark nearly a hundred years ago. Hagan’s actions off the course were considered somewhat scandalous for his era, but mainly his lifestyle was kind of admired by many as golfers weren’t exactly part of the country’s social elite in most cases. Even professionals of the era and most amateurs. Hagen lived large and beyond his means which is what attracted so many crowds. He wasn’t rich of course. What’s relevant to my comment is his having been quoted to the effect that he didn’t need to be a millionaire – he just wanted to be able to live like one.
Sound like someone else we know?
Wealth is relative, like everything else. I am a gourmet cook. I routinely eat food that is considered upscale. What I can tell you is that if you know how to cook, you can make drop dead cuisine at a low price and eat like a “rich” person. Point being, I eat well because I love to cook, not because I want to impress people. Trump’s only value is impressing people. Different kettle of fish.
I agree wealth comes in forms other than money. The movie version of The Exorcist sucked but the book was terrific. I bring it up because when talking (early on) with the “famous actress” Father Damien wanted to impress her and cited what were in fact pretty damn impressive academic credentials beyond the title priest. In response to the mom’s reaction he replied “We don’t take vows of mental poverty.”

John Mulaney had him nailed years ago, describing him as not a rich guy, but what a hobo imagines a rich person to be.
And an idiot’s idea of a smart person.
He is a parody of himself. The best thing that could happen now is if the idiots surrounding him would invoke the 25th Amendment and put him and this nation out of its misery.
