I miss the old days where someone asked me; "Did you hear what the president said? Did you see what the president did?", I could actually say no.
His favorite line is "I don't know, we'll see what happens." Reality. Television.
Donald Trump right now, after his attorney Rudy Guilliani admits Trump paid Cohen to pay off Stormy Daniels:
....the word DUH comes to mind.
If Trump cared about what people say about him, this would be a big deal. He doesn't. He doesn't care to make himself look better because he doesn't care about how he looks. We have been slammed with so many awful stories about him over the past three years that this is just another drop in the bucket. The whole thing is really disheartening. This administration makes me sick.
All this does is give him more attention, which is all that matters to him.
Not that I'm defending Trump, but this has been a self-fulfilling prophecy from the mainstream perspective. We've had him being compared to Hitler, Mussolini and other actual fascists for the past few years, so this seems smaller by comparison, even though there is far more substance to these accusations.

His strategy - stay in the news 24/7 - is seemingly really stupid, given almost all of it is negative, but in reality, it has exhausted people and they seem to care less and less with each passing day. He is the dumbest genius in human history.
