danger: stream of consciousness bullshit ahead—to most entities the burden of litigation arbitration or negotiation is distracting, burdensome, and/or annoying enough to result in improved business models. trump by fame bluster and shamelessness, and the correct selection of markets and of trading victims, turned it into a variably successful series of grifts. he was bankrupt several times. eventually he moved mainly into selling his name. and then to politics, which has the lowest possible level of guaranty of performance. there’s still RE, but i sorta expect its legacy/vestigial? dunno, i could be wrong there. have assumed a while that without political trump, both the trademark trump and the RE trump collapse.anyway politics has a lotta visibility but you can lie nearly without limit. it’s been a steady descent of standards for him, and a continual increase in public exposure and really, also an increase in the stakes for everyone. he has mastered the double down, so we get to either: the system effectively collapses, or he is imprisoned (or eliminated).

you read that new yorker article and you really do end up blaming that t.v. producer. trump was on the outs. he had no money. nobody wanted his fucking steaks. and that guy threw him a lifeline. all of a sudden he was hugely famous in a way he hadn't been with his books and new york/casino fame. he was famous famous. sucks so bad. just a simple twist of fate.

I don't see how Vance helps Trump as his VP at all. The only worse Veep pick would be Laura Loomer.

Vance did win a senate seat in Ohio, so he could conceivably help to solidify those 17 electoral college votes for Trump. Vance may be transparently awful in our eyes, but to anyone capable of voting for Trump, he's entirely acceptable. Appealing, even.

yeah, but Vance was an "intellectual" who dumbed himself down to win a Senate seat. Trumpers will probably always be suspicious of him.

US elections are usually won by the more charismatic candidate, except in the case of 2020, where Trump had so much negative charisma that he was beaten by a guy with no charisma.

rich guy guided trophy hunting is mega cringe but hunting in general is realer than anything trump has ever done. i'm certain the reason he doesn't like hunting has nothing to do with compassion for the animals and everything to do with contempt for the mess and low-class-ness of it and the fact that it has nothing to do with making money.
