JL, the cruel (I guess) irony of Trump/old is that the man is afraid of death, and this animates (pardon the mixed metaphor) his behavior to a degree not really investigated. Why did he slag Gold Star parents, mock John McCain for being a POW, regard dead soldiers as dopes and dupes, insult John Dingell’s family, refuse to truly lead during Covid? Because this emotionally neutered narcissistic man-child believes he can slither or slander his way out of anything, but he knows he can’t beat death. And it terrifies him. Take my idea and run with it.
