I do worry Mr Trump is actually a terrible man even when not putting on an act, but this call makes me think prez Biden and VP Harris are nice people or have a great persona going each. They both pass the shopping cart test - especjally because the Pz and VP didn’t release press about being human but just did it and left it - and I worry Mr Trump would not pass the same test.
I hope we can see America’s Mom and Dad in the WH and feel some hope for a moment.
Because to Trump, politics is like pro wrestling. Showing kindness to your opponent is like dropping kayfabe. There’s no good way to stay in character in that moment.
I love the pro wrestling analogy for the way Trump approaches everything. I have long thought that myself. I sometimes wonder if his involvement in the WWE and even his own comedic roast were just exercises for him to learn to never break character.
I regularly watch the clip of him getting hit with the Stone Cold Stunner. It probably didn’t hurt him but it still brings me joy.
Reminds me of this bit.
What a weird thing to say.
They don’t get anything out of calling him, so he doesn’t understand why they’d do it. Someone else told him it’s a nice thing to do and that acknowledging it is helpful to him.
I initially read that as ‘Donald Trump quits’ and my heart leapt.
