Is he difficult to keep up with?
Does he call them at one o'clock in the morning, four o'clock in the morning?
Does he never sleep on airplanes?
I mean, there might be some truth to that, right?
Donald Trump has proven that he is relatively healthy in certain ways, that he is able to stand up and do these long rallies that, you know, I frankly probably couldn't do.
You know, I got two kids at home, I'm tired all the time.
I probably couldn't keep up with them in certain ways.
And so it's a combination of there being some truth and that the hyperbole, you know, is beneficial to their own political futures.
Like, what the hell is this?
Donald Trump is out there so often saying so many things that anyone who has a prior belief about him can find moments that prove their priors.
And sometimes it's the same moment that can prove multiple priors, right?
Like, if Donald Trump wakes up at 5 in the morning and sends out 5,000, you know, kind of deranged truth posts,
you could say, man, this guy is not well, like clearly there's something going on with his mind that he's kind of unhinged.
And another person could say, wow, this guy's already up at five in the morning and he's doing work.
I mean, this is the problem with him.
And this is sort of his superpower in a way is that
He gives people so much of himself.
He's out in front of cameras all the time.
He's doing these rallies.
He's doing press availabilities and gaggles.
