The Art Of The Deal
Another example of what I wrote about, just in case anyone thought I was cherry-picking: on multiple occasions (after batshit crazy statements; the "small loan" of a million dollars immediately comes to mind) it's been correctly said that this infrahuman lost his grip on reality. What did he say after Nancy Pelosi and others called for Jeff Sessions to resign?
"Democrats are losing their grip on reality!"
Joe Sixpack & Hockey Mom can't deal with this. They're like dogs being told to stand up and sit at the same time: they don't know
what to do. (Sorry to put it that way, but... eh, not really — if anything, with that comparison I'm insulting dogs). So, they revert to their default mode of unquestioning stupidity, and we're living the results: they voted against their own interests, they think the fucking AYATOLLAH OF FAKE NEWS (remember this mook was doing it way back in the day, when he posed as his own PR guy) is more trustworthy than Christiane Amanpour, and more or less half the country seems to be A-OK with the immigration ban. It is GLAMOROUS. Pass the angel dust.
