the efforts of a network of more competent opportunists and ideological zealots. There is no “there” there beyond this and there never really was. His only “talent” such as it is, is that parts of him, as a human being, have always been and ever shall be missing.

Allow me an indulgence. Imagine a Greek God comes down and brings T a little purple button in a golden box. The god informs T if he pushes the button, he’ll get a crisp new $20 bill but also, a little old lady will break her hip and die alone in pain over the next 2 days. The god tells him that nobody will ever know about the button or the $20. The god also tells him the little old lady doesn’t vote. For a $20 bill, T is 100% pushing that button and killing that old lady, every time. At his core, that’s who he is. He’s a washed-up reality TV star who narrowly missed selling used cars for a living.
