Absolutely but also the fact that it was him feels rather absurd. Its like that scene in Back to the Future.
“Whose the president?”
“Ronald Reagan!”
“The actor?!”
Donald Trump was kind of a washed up joke by the time of his initial run. Maybe the Apprentice was doing fine ratings wise, but like, i feel like everyone knew it was a clownshow. It had been running well past the Reality boom of the early 2000s. I think we all expected Americas next top fascist to be a young, handsome political agitator, a Richard Spencer type, or maybe a Journeyman statesman type, with a square jaw and flecked with gray around the temples. That’s who central casting would bring in, to sell that this guy could bring the fash to Joe sixpack in Peoria.
Instead, its a 24 hour clown show. Forget Cruz, or Graham, or even Bobert or Greene. We have other mediocre washed up has been white dudes stumping at this rallies. Hulk Hogan, Kevin Sorbo, Kid Rock, Scott Adams, Elon Musk. The fact that team sports politics has become a literal fucking clown show feels like it is in 2013 era Anon’s oeuvre of humor.
