When dealing with a population of clowns, you do have to often assert and demonstrate you know what you are doing.
In Donald Trump's case, he knows how to follow Surkov screenplay of year 2013 and does an excellent job. The audience adores the performance. Personally, I'm sick and sickened by 100% of the USA nation who thinks this is enjoyable absurd comedy, who values memes and surreal humor and mocking of mass dehumanization over goodness itself. I think the United States of America people (We The People) in year 2024 and year 2025 have a massive morality education failure and choose these absurd comedy methods over good.

“How to teach again what has been taught correctly it incorrectly 1000 thousand times, throughout the millenniums of mankind's prudent folly? That is the hero's ultimate difficult task. How to render back into light-world language the speech-defying pronouncements of the dark? Many failures attest to the difficulties of this life-affirmative threshold.” ― Joseph Campbell (Sarah Lawrence College for women), The Hero With a Thousand Faces, 1949
