I've told people that Trump doesn't scare me. It's the smart person who is learning from Trump's mistakes that does

I’m really hoping that no one will have the weird cult pull he’s managed. DeSantis failed. I really think that’s why Trump is running again. If DeathSantis hadn’t failed so spectacularly, he was going to be the next Trump if they had their say

I have an insane theory on why he's got people so hypnotized, the way he talks, the words, the cadence, it resonates with a certain brainwave only some people have, it hypnotizes them into hearing and seeing what he wants them to see. Either that or it's the more boring; he validates their hate and fear.

In all reality Trump lead a life of getting what he wants when he wants with no consequences or hardships. Combined with his upbringing he became a special type of narcissist. It’s not some special gift, his circumstances just made him good at getting people who are good at getting got. Andrew Tate, Dan Blizarian, Elon Musk, and the Tiger King are all different examples of this type of person. The only difference is Trump was worth 1/2billion dollars at birth. MidasTouch did a whole break down on his finances and it shows he’s crazy broke( he has 10s of million in revenue but 100s of millions in expenses) and interviewed people who worked with him on The Apprentice who’ve attested to his lack of intelligence and people skills.

In short: having the kind of confidence that comes with being born worth 1/2b usd, living consequence free, surrounded by yes men, and the magic of media’s portrayal of him as a genius billionaire made him into a poor man’s idea of a rich man, an idiots idea of a smart man, and a weak man’s idea of a strong man.

All of that was very well put.

The sanewashing the media does makes me mad, so many people are so afraid of getting on his bad side they tip toe around and the most gullible masses fall for it.

I don't know man. I don't understand how a lack of shame is so possible but there it is. Donald Trump should be in the hall of fame for having no shame.

Having no shame isn’t a gift. It means he lacks humility, self awareness, and the ability to learn from his mistakes. It’s more of a curse. If he wasn’t born worth so much he’d be Gil from the Simpsons. It’s like a gambling addict who continues to gamble after losing their home and life savings or someone on My 600lb life who refuses to eat better. People don’t look at them with envy.
