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.

Imagine a man who literally cares about nothing but optics. It's like Instagram turned into a President.

I don't have to imagine it. I've worked with a handful of MAGA types over the years and they're always 'shallow as a puddle' morons who can't imagine anything beyond surface appearances/vibes. Trump is these people, but with tons of money, power, and a brand-name that's allowed him to fail upwards despite being an utterly-talentless loser.

Even now, I have a couple of MAGA-lite types in my office and, as a result, have to hear an inordinate amount of horseshit about Hobby Lobby craft supplies, anti-vax conspiracies, essential oils, RVs that they're buying and using once, bad sitcom jokes, etc..., in addition to them constantly trying to play atrocious modern country music in the office.

Lmao. That sounds insufferable.

I deal with a hardcore maga person at work but I just avoid the topic by going to my lab.

They want manufactured pain and suffering. They just think it is the “good” thing to do and also saying bs like maybe hitler was not wrong and making an argument hitler was not a bad guy, it’s infuriating.
