Is this article an indication of everyone finally seeing Trump unmasked?

I think ‘everyone’ is a bit optimistic.

I doubt it.

At the end, it says: “With all of the hustling stripped away, what’s left is a hollow ideologue grasping for approval from those who see the world the way he does.”

He’s no ideologue. He doesn’t have an ideology. It’s possible to promote even a bad ideology honestly. Trump does nothing honestly, not even promote himself.

And I’d wager that no one else sees the world the way he does because to do so, they would have to see absolutely nothing but him. He is his own world. How can you be more isolated than that? It isn’t an ideology. It’s a pathology.

trump wore no masks. To his voters, being a hateful racist white man made him suitable for the WH. He himself figured this out early when he said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and he wouldn’t lose any voters. The only thing that was unmasked was the deplorability of his supporters.

I’m just praying that enough people get out to vote to vote him out of office. Four years ago my biggest fear was that Kanye West would be our next president. Now, I’d vote for him over this turd

No. Trump wanted to be president and became exactly what the majority of Americans wanted the president to be. The problem isn’t Trump. The problem is those Americans that think a racist facist nationalist prat who puts his needs above those of his people best represents them.

@Lightlyseared,

> those Americans that think a racist facist nationalist prat who puts his needs above those of his people best represents them

And doesn’t he?

Probably. But then it would be nice if they dropped the holier than thou bullshit that is forced on everyone else

IMHO Trump has never been masked. He’s well respected And with the treatment he has received I must admire his tenacity and devotion to his beliefs of our country! Can’t fault the economy. He will go down in history as one of the greats. The corrupt left can’t stand it! He is an outsider. And that threatens their very relevance in this world!

I doubt if anyone, friend or foe, is under any illusions about the nature of Donald Trump. There really is no mask to remove.

@josie
Well the sane mask was removed long ago.

“I doubt if anyone, friend or foe, is under any illusions about the nature of Donald Trump.”
@josie What do you make of @si3tech ‘s post above yours?
Or the people who say they think Trump is a messiah?

@Zaku

Well the epitome of a TRUE Messiah does not include :self-aggrandizing

Self-aggrandizing is the process of claiming past accomplishments or attributes about one’s self that promote one’s self.

Typically, these claims stretch the truth or may even be outright lies.
Someone with delusions of grandeur would make self-aggrandizing claims.

@Zaku

Messiah?

That’s a pretty big leap considering he was nothing more than the alternative to Hillary Clinton, a woman who has polled negative since even before her husband was elected president.

You don’t like Trump, you can blame an arrogant party for not capitalizing on the initiative and pushing Obama ver. 2, instead of assuming they could run a loser and still win.

@josie (applause) True story.

@josie Yeah. Even just listening to some rural Christian radio… (I’m not sure if that’s more or less certifiably insane than them saying that the USA tolerating gay marriage is responsible for flooding in Houston.)

The chosen one? The new film that claims Trump’s election was an act of God

In Secret Recording, Trump Associates Compare Him to Jewish Messiah

Trump Declares Himself “King of Israel,” the “Second Coming of God”
