where they're pretending to hit him over the head with folding chairs in public and in private they're all friendly and cordial. It's a game to them, using theatrics to get the MAGAts enraged and excited.

I have used the exact term pro wrestling to describe politicians on this site since shortly after I started posting. I worked with politicians from both parties as a bodyguard and know how they act when no cameras are around and no constituents. It definitely changes your perspective. And yes, I've seen some in compromising positions.

I’ve known him for over a decade, before his first state senate seat. His demeanor hasn’t changed in office - he’s really like this.
