Trump has no real skills wrote:
Far as I can tell, Trump's main strategy so far is to impose import tariffs (literally taxes on American companies), claim "tariffs are now a tax that you can charge to other countries, believe me", and count on everyone believing him, because the Mainstream Media is committed to calling out only his character flaws, and never calling out his lies or administrative failures.
the media is doing the same thing with hegseth. They're going to focus almost all the coverage on his drunken life, his multiple marriages and baby mamas, hush money, sex assault allegations, etc. And virtually nothing on him being completely unqualified to be sec def.
Stupid for-profit media needs clicks, and sex sells. So we will get the sex stories, we will click, and we'll get an unforgivably unqualified Sec Def.
But oh so handsome on TV, amirite, Donny?
