I don’t understand how this guy has been on international news for decades and Americans still don’t understand how he operates and continue to take the things he says at face value.
I can remember all of my life the press ridiculing him for his ego and ostentatiousness, remember gold toilets, his name everywhere? I remember when it seemed like every other year he was taking another casino into bankruptcy. I remember continuously complaints where he stiffed employees and contractors, daring them to sue against his team of lawyers who would make it far more expensive than the money owed. I remember allegations of tax fraud over years and decades that somehow never got investigated.
I remember ridicule over the stupid tv show he funded to rehabilitate his image: did that actually work?
I remember the laughing the first time he wanted to run for president, and he crashed in flames as no one would take him seriously as a candidate
How did such a long history of incompetence, self-servicing corruption ever get turned around?

The corporate press has been working very hard to normalise him for all these years.

Short answer: social media and Russian influence campaigns.
And The Apprentice.
All of it should implode somewhere, at some point, you would think.
Have you been working very hard to change that fact?
People here are really fucking dumb
