@hurryinghoosiers The presidency, the most powerful office in the world, isn't enough for him. He requires constant adulation and tangible things (like his name on buildings, and trophies) that reflect his greatness. What world leader, besides Trump, would enthusiastically accept a Nobel Peace Prize medal that was awarded to someone else? He treats Mamdani respectfully because he (Trump) has always wanted to be mayor of New York City. Certain memes and AI-generated stuff that he's posted reflect that he wishes he was the pope, or an action hero. I'm sure it bothers the piss out of him that he doesn't have an Oscar, a Cy Young Award or People Magazine's 'Sexiest Man Alive' recognition.
Complete headcase.
@unclemark Didn't take him long to destroy the Kennedy Center. After he took it over, they couldn't book acts or sell tickets so he had to shut it down for a renovation to save face.
Not sure how they're funding the renovation but wouldn't be surprised if it's another "pay to play" deal like the WH ballroom and other fundraising endeavors by this president.

Certainly Trump is sexy to Lucy but his nose is ugly as sin. He thinks he’s handsome but I doubt many women would pick him absent his money. He’s surely no movie star good looking.@hurryinghoosiers The presidency, the most powerful office in the world, isn't enough for him.

@hhlurker Lucy?
He's old. Tough to look good at that age but he doesn't help himself or his appearance with the embarrassing combover, the bronzer, the 5-foot long ties, and the baseball hats.
Magnanimous as always.
Guessing his MAGAts don't see anything wrong with a president saying that
There are no limits to the crude, rude, despicable, behavior he'll exhibit or that his sycophants will defend. One day these people will realize how stupid they were.
If you read the Smith Report, it's clear that his entire team knew that it was a lie that the 2020 election and the President was repeatedly told it was false. The President essentially said it didn't matter; they were going to continue the fight. Rudy, a coconspirator in the case, said under oath he and the team knew it was all false. I thought Trump himself actually knew that it was all a lie because that's what he was told by his people over and over. It was also what two people he paid to analyze the election and find fraud told him when they found no fraud. At this point, I believe the President has made himself believe the lie. It's his personality. A real personality flaw.
How many times have you heard "the President is right about everything" from Trump loyalists? It's all coming from the White House aides who when asked about blatant lies will start their response with "The President is right" followed by a completely bogus explanation that doesn't at all mean the President's lies were actually correct.
"So why do his second-term aides habitually put their names on “President Trump is right” quotes when he plainly isn’t right? When we asked the White House for an explanation in early March, Desai replied, “President Trump has been right about everything, and CNN struggles to accept this. Sad!”"
An example, of the defense in action:
In September, for example, PolitiFact asked the White House about Trump’s incorrect declaration that the US had “no inflation.” Spokesperson Kush Desai replied, “President Trump is right: The days of (former President) Joe Biden’s debilitating inflation crisis are over. Since President Trump took office, inflation has been tracking at a low and stable 2.3 percent annualized rate and real wages for American workers are up.”
Notably missing from Desai’s “President Trump is right” reply was any attempt to demonstrate that Trump’s “no inflation” claim was indeed right. In fact, Desai’s assertion that inflation was “a low and stable 2.3 percent annualized rate” contradicted Trump’s assertion that inflation no longer existed.
Since Trump’s second inauguration, the White House has sent reporters similarly unconvincing Trump-is-right replies to questions on subjects as varied as his false claims about how many wars he has settled, his false claims that each US military attack on an alleged drug-trafficking boat saves 25,000 American lives, his false claims that Democrats were last fall trying to secure $1.5 trillion in health care funding for undocumented immigrants, his false claims that Biden allowed South Korea to stop paying some of the cost of the US military presence there, and his false claims that he is reducing prescription drug prices by a mathematically impossible 1,000% or more.
Hilarious in a very sad way.

@aloha-hoosier Whenever it seems he's gone as low as possible, he always manages to go lower. There is truly no bottom with this man.

Infallibility of the ruler is a key aspect of autocratic regimes.
At least Marco's boots appear to fit him.
