I somehow was not aware of exactly where and how Trump got the idea that tariffs were a solid idea. Behold (youtu.be)

Hell, I got dumber than that. Trump's origin story was Obama destroying him at the White House Corespondent's Dinner. American history unfolding:

That was the moment Trump decided to run. Watch him fucking seethe. I doubt he had ever, before or since, taken such a beating to his narcissism.

This is why I've been screaming for media and government leaders to push him into narcissistic collapse. (That's a thing, look it up.) It would be child's play for people with a large enough audience to take him apart at the seams.

Idk he had just done a Comedy Central Roast like a month before the White House Correspondents Dinner. Obama didn't say anything worse than that. He had been openly talking about it for years prior, that's why The Simpsons made a joke about it in 2000. His racism and greed is why he ran.

I keep hoping that someone, publicly, in front of Trump himself, completely belittles him. Example transcript:

Trump: Tariffs are good! Make America strong! Person: (loudly and with dismissive hand gestures) Oh shut up, you incoherent crybaby idiot. Nobody cares what you think. Trump: You can't shush me! Person: You seem grumpy. Did you eat recently? Maybe go play with your friends?

(I hope you are able to come up with more colorful and hilarious examples of convos)

Based on my own hand-wavy analysis, I think that it will be effective on two fronts: 1. Narcissistic collapse of Trump. It would break Trump, in public, which will probably make him look even more like a crybaby, idiot. 2. Collapse of the cult of personality around him, specifically "the strongman" personality.

Such a damn shame because it would be so easy to pull his teeth. European leaders alone could have him roll up into a little ball. And the media should be hammering him with humiliation.

I don’t think it would be that easy. Wishful thinking. Elons son did worse and he’s like 4.
