Like we just, the tent is so big, but you know, you can be, I don't know.
I think it's a good moment for Democrats when that is the sort of juxtaposition.
It's like, I think my favorite piece that I read this week, it's so, it is full bonkers.
You mentioned that Trump is his full self when he's talking about ballroom renovations.
He's his full self when he is in like home reno mode.
He is, according to this reporting, walking around gluing challenge coins, those military commemorative coins.
He's gluing challenge coins to the doors of the White House, to various offices in the administration in the White House, like an old grandpa.
just like dusting off his fishing rods to put on display in the garage.
I mean, it's literally the idea that Trump just has forsaken political reality and doesn't give a shit about the midterms or the legislative branch, and instead thinks of himself as a man who has embarked on a great mission, a la Alexander the Great, Napoleon, and Julius Caesar.
Those are the three great men mentioned in this piece.
Like, first of all, I guarantee you that Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great, and Napoleon Bonaparte could get the motherfucking Strait of Hormuz open, okay?
They're like the greatest military tacticians in world history.
The idea that Trump puts himself on that level is both deluded and dangerous, and it should inform our thinking about any kind of quote-unquote strategy that comes from this White House, right?
It is a cult.
It is no longer, you know, he's not the head of a party.
He's just, I mean, he is in the worst way, in the way that dictators care only about their legacy and no longer about the country or the republic or whatever it is they're governing.
That's Trump.
I mean, it's...
There there's he doesn't care about the he apparently didn't care about his running mate in 2024 because he said at one point in the article, who cares?
I'll be dead.
