I'm tired of the media constantly 'translating' for Trump. They take what he says and try to discern something coherent. The problem is that the points they manage to deduce are often dumb and contradictory so they're back where they started not knowing what the fuck his plan really is. Maybe, you just can't polish this turd. Maybe his words and actions are incoherent and dumb because he IS fucking incoherent and dumb.
earlier yesterday my partner was talking about this and brought up that being incomprehensibly loud and horrible is the entire point. He's got a lot of buddies he's funneling money to in various ways and that money is then being used to amuse themselves with weird pedo shit and environmental destruction while destroying social safety nets and hoarding food, housing, and medical resources so that we can't do anything about it. His role in all this is to just be as loudly horrible and insane as possible so that that's the only thing people are able to see. It's specifically supposed to not make any sense.
He's Zaphod Beeblebrox. Fuck.
We're truly fucked
