"But he hasn't got anything on," a little child said.

"Did you ever hear such innocent prattle?" said its father. And one person whispered to another what the child had said, "He hasn't anything on. A child says he hasn't anything on."

"But he hasn't got anything on!" the whole town cried out at last.

The Emperor shivered, for he suspected they were right. But he thought, "This procession has got to go on." So he walked more proudly than ever, as his noblemen held high the train that wasn't there at all.

Esposito: From this day on, the official language of San Marcos will be Swedish. Silence! In addition to that, all citizens will be required to change their underwear every half-hour. Underwear will be worn on the outside so we can check. Furthermore, all children under 16 years old are now... 16 years old!

"Again, someone please explain to me how this man is not insane."

By definition, trolls are less insane than the people who cannot control their impulses to constantly react to and feed the troll. A literally insane man would not be able to do what Trump has done. If you think he's insane, you're underestimating him. Again.

He hasn't done anything yet. Signing stupid ---- and beaking off a lot is not much of an accomplishment.

Dealing with the consequences is where it starts to get real.

Yea, I'm not buying that whole 3D chess thing.
What was underestimated was the willingness of folks much smarter and capable to use him for their own ends.

"He hasn't done anything yet."

Congrats on winning the dumbest post of the year award. The guy has been elected President twice and has deliberately caused a lot of chaos and havoc. WTF you talking about hasn't done anything yet?

When will it become 5D chess that Press Trump is playing?

You should. Maybe if you had, you might have had a chance at defeating him.

I mean he has not done anything to benefit the country he is running. He's done lots to benefit himself. Those are different things.

What did I say? Dare to be stupid.

2016: "We're not underestimating him. Derp."
2024: "We're not underestimating him. Derp."

If you really think he's that incapable, then how the hell did you lose to him and what does that say about you?

But hey, keep on underestimating him. You unwittingly helped him get elected twice, maybe you'll end up helping him finishing off the country too.

He does have this weird power to get folks to believe in him, but I believe he's just a tool.
The main thing I did underestimate is regular folk's desire to be lied to.

- underestimate is regular folk's desire to be lied to.

Same here... and also I also underestimate their capacity to discern fact from fiction; even worse, their lack of desire or will to even try to do so.

We live in a 'meme universe' and 'vibe world' now where the 'News' from the Media is apparently confused with Reality TV shows. Not taken particularly seriously.

Like the news today is another Episode of another Sequel from The Apprentice.

Interestingly, to me at least, DJT is totally sticking with Trump45 as his logo, not going to bother with 47. And why should he, he'd just have to change it again to Trump48!

I also saw an interview from his Fox appearance where he's asked if Shady JD will be #48... and he quickly practically yells out, "NO!". It was definitely entertaining, I have to admit.
