He should just take a chapter from Ann Richards and call him “poor Donny” at every opportunity, as in “Poor Donny, he can’t help it. He was born with a silver foot in his mouth.” It would infuriate him.

Campaigns using unauthorized songs has long been a problem. The Republicans are worse culprits than Democrats, but both sides do do it.

I’ll reference Teddy and the Bull Moose Party (and to some extent Ross Perot and the Reform Party). The MAGA party will collapse as soon as Trump dies, but I support the concept because it would give the Democrats a free shot at the White House (and Biden could decide not to run and someone under the age of 65 could take the nomination).

Yeah, but you don’t have the pro-authoritarian mindset. Most Trump supporters do.

So they’re fine with being told what they can and cannot do.

Given that he’d spot the discrepancy to begin with.  
Then again, I suppose he has the luxury of there always being _someone_ around to set him straight on, like, the really, really, _really_ basic things in life, to make him function througout the day, which may include things like news he doesn’t understand or want to hear.  
He must go through handlers like 'berders.

There’s NO WAY Donnie knows the word “feckless.” Unless he meant _reckless_ … or maybe _fuckless_. 🧐

While he has blown up like the GoodYear Blimp, if he didn’t pass those ‘berders’ regularly, his Flabby Shanks would eventually erupt like the Artemis Rocket.
