Many of us who were familiar with Donald Trump and his lifelong pattern of taking advantage of others and acting outrageously were confident that he would not grow into the presidency and that he would consistently embarrass us. We did not know exactly what he would do to bring himself and our country low, but knew that there would be one outrage after another. We have been proven correct again and again.
In the latest chapter of “you can’t make this stuff up,” Trump the grifter is offering a set of $99 trading cards in which he (who else) is featured as a superhero: so much for the dignity of the former president of the United States and his state of mind.
No one — not any former president or anyone of national prominence — has come close to engaging in the buffoonery that is the former president’s calling card.
The trading card fiasco is one more reason that Trump’s bid for reelection should be met with raucous laughter, assuming one enjoys tragic comedy.
