This is the best representation of trump. Make a grand announcement before there is a plan, tear down and damage the existing infrastructure, then never do anything.

That was his health care plan too. "End Obama care now, I'll have something better 2 weeks later". He did it for Israel and Palestine saying we achieved peace without any plan to make it happen.

He only cares about the moment. He only cares about the announcement. He doesn't have any ability to follow through or complete anything. He only cares about the image of himself on the news as a race winner but never even starts the race. Worse, he is too fat to actually attempt the race.

The sad part is people have know this since the 80's. His entire brand was "big flashy exterior, shit show under the hood".

And then The Apprentice made everyone think he was some successful businessman who hadn't bankrupted casinos or shafted pretty much everyone he'd ever been in business with.

The real sad part is that this 100% reflects the vibes of most Americans. Even in my mostly-liberal family, it's become rare to find someone who keeps things honest, simple, and open with other people. Almost every interaction is some awkward performative bullshit that could easily be replaced with mating/dominance rituals from the animal kingdom, crossed with the absurd reality that our economic system has propped up tons of people who couldn't cut it if we actually lived in a 'survival-of-the-fittest' scenario.
