I apologize for anything related to Trump.
Everyone has some sort of Zoom call camera set up. Many pundits have multiple backgrounds. We regular people have at least some sort of nice neatly arranged area to represent ourselves on calls.
He cant get it together for a call in to Fox? I heard that Mar a lago is on a COVID shutdown but no one can clean up the fast food wrappers?

(7,431 posts)He has to PAY people to make him look presentable. Why bother? And then there's the teeth he has to place in his mouth, and then there's the diaper that he has to wear in case he's stuck on the video and has to void all kinds of debris from his overly worked colon. With a phone, he can sit on his fancy throne and share the bs from both ends of his corpulent body.

(53,774 posts)One actually has to exert some energy to do zoom, and have some basic tech knowledge of the program.
Of course the tech knowledge and set up can be done by an assistant, but then, like I said there is the energy output issue, as well as the personal grooming one.

(37,159 posts)Why replace something what already does what he wants with something that requires more prep work?
Plus, he likes the acoustics of his toilet seat.

(32,080 posts)Why should his appearances on The Propaganda Channel be any different? Why put more effort into something than you need to put into it?
