Seeing the word authentic used to describe Trump set me back for a hot second. How could that word possibly be used in relation to anything about this guy? But of course, you are right. I briefly forgot that JVL is always right. Mea culpa.

Seeing the word authentic used to describe Trump set me back for a hot second. How could that word possibly be used in relation to anything about this guy? But of course, you are right. I briefly forgot that JVL is always right. Mea culpa.
Trump is indeed the real deal, the walking talking embodiment of Willie Stark, though I think R.P.W. gave that character a few more human traits than The Donald possesses. DeSantis and the rest really are no more than pretenders. At least for now.
I owned a Quarter Horse gelding for many years that, looking back on it, I should have probably named Donald or something similar. He was a smallish horse, typical foundation confirmation for the breed...an inch short of 15 hands, 875 / 900 pounds. Over nearly 30 years I watched that horse dominate every other horse he ever came into contact with, regardless of how much larger or younger and fit they were, either in my own string or the horses of others. Any equine pecking order he was inserted into always ended up with him at the top. He was an absolute master of intimidation. My vet once laughingly noted, while watching him thoroughly cow two of my other geldings, that although the other two nags had at least a couple of hundred pounds each on him and were much younger, he had a couple of tons of attitude on them. And that that was all that was really required to be the boss in the equine world. And the world of Republican politics doesn't appear much different.
Trump has that tonnage of attitude because he truly believes in no other possibility other than him being the boss, just like my little gelding did. DeSantis and those other nefarious schmoes ain't got that, fortunately. Dealing with more than one real deal at a time may be more than all of us are up for.
