You know what keeps me up at night: How can a man build an entire empire on the corpses of truth, loyalty, and basic human decency, and still convince millions he's their fucking savior?
When q & its anon began displaying frenzied, cyclic missives during level1taco, it seemed a reasonable mind might naturally recall the similar call-in tactics employed in earlier infamy by the faux baron & miller trumpeting the oh-so-familiar gold-toned pitchman’s bark turning a tip into the jam…. White hats, best beware the master con of all hat and no cattle.
Bottom line, Trump is a psychopath. But like many, he can be charming, attractive and funny, and very persuasive. He has a strong compulsion to be the big shot, able to make or break friends and enemies. Trump needs loyalists to do his bidding. Success means money so the collapse of his casino empire was a crushing blow leaving him bitter and cynical. The Apprentice saved him. Trump is basically a real estate huckster, a condo salesman. He sells himself as the strongest and greatest with his competitors as criminals. Trump is a psychopath with no convictions or principles but a wily fox, always restless and relentless. He is an implacable foe but with assets including the depth of his life experience and his cunning nature.
In a somewhat ironic (and economically catastrophic) turn of events, the Invented Third Party helped get a crackpot a spot on Trump's economic team. Peter Navarro is a "senior advisor for trade and manufacturing" to the administration. He is one of the most enthusiastic proponents of tarrifs and pushed Trump, who was already predisposed to support them because he doesn't understand them, to embrace them wholeheartedly. Navarro has written more then one book extolling the efficacy of tariffs, citing a prize winning economist by the name of Ron Varo. Guess what? There's no such person. That's an anagram of Navarro. He invented his own expert to justify his support of a theory that most ACTUAL experts disavowed. And Trump fell for it, since he's not self aware enough to recognize his own modus operandi.
I just don't understand how he could screw so many people for so long without someone at least _trying_ to kill him. He has more luck than a million other people combined.
I wonder if the wanting to believe in successful people is an American thing, perhaps due to the American dream myth. Here in the UK l think we generally distrust very financially successful folks and think they must be lacking something in other ways. Probably true from some l've met.
I think of this monstrous eater as a Putrid Parasite. He sucks the life out of everything and everybody he is near while contributing nothing.
“Everything he touches dies” to quote a wise man.
Every so often he had to inhabit another persona to feel the tiniest bit human. But it never lasted. His inner monster always prevailed. And now, as he has assumed the most powerful position in the world, he still isn’t satisfied. His never ending greed drives him on. As he sundowns, he can’t hide his true being anymore. He is ‘disinhibited’ and disgusting all the time.
Fantastic profile in cowardice, corruption, and counterfeit values! He was created as a cultural hero by Forbes, Vanity Fair, and the other celebrity-fawning shitrags of American media. Whenever I see Trump doing his little double-jerkoff dance, I imagine Roy Cohn's dick in one hand and his father's in the other.
Excellent report.
This is a truly amazing article. Wow. Lady Karma is I. Waiting and boy oh boy will it be grand when she hits back!!!!!

He’s Icky and named his child Baron What a Jerk
Amazing insight. Thank you.

Thank you Wendy, keep up the good work.

Total nausea! You are a really good writer; but unfortunately I read this all the way to the end, and now my guts hurt.
