So beautiful.
The beauty is in the mix.
The face of the future for our country is all American.
And that has many versions.
So Donald Trump, we know this, he doesn't drink, he doesn't smoke, he doesn't take any recreational drugs that we know of, but Donald Trump has a different kind of addiction, I guess we could call it.
He's addicted to feeling like he is powerful, even if he's not really powerful, often he's not.
He lives, lives for the dopamine rush that comes with big public displays that make him feel strong and important.
Actions that feed his fragile ego and quell all of his insecurities, and there are many.
I mean, he kind of suggested as much last month, saying out loud, when he publicly admitted to having a possessive and addictive type personality.
Just the kind of person you want in the White House, right?
Now, Trump craves the high that comes from the public displays of power so much that he doesn't concern himself with the consequences of his actions.
Because by the time the dust finally settles, he's already chasing his next dopamine hit.
And Donald Trump's decision to invade a foreign country and arrest its president is kind of a perfect example of this.
I mean, he relished the images of the dramatic overnight raid to capture Nicolas Maduro, who I would note is not a good guy.
He's a very bad guy and a very corrupt guy, but still.
Trump loved the scene of Maduro being perp walked off a plane in his tracksuit into an American prison.
He even told his favorite Fox Morning program, quote, I watched it like I was watching a television show.
The speed, the violence, it was an amazing thing.
That's the president of the United States, everybody, saying that.
See, for him, this is all about the spectacle, about the images of toughness and conquest.
