    “I don’t understand the emotion”

    Exactly like my dad on this. It’s really simple, he likes Trump’s crudeness, cruelty, insulting, and offensive behavior, and getting a rise of people for supporting him or repeating his most blatantly vile statements. It’s juvenile fun to play around with.

    He knows he’s eating shit to make other people smell his breath. Everything past that is a justification slapped together. Ultimately nothing matters to them past the sport politics sophmoric bullshit.

        He believes that hierarchy is the correct way of the world. So he thinks it’s his right and duty to keep people “in their place”. That’s why (in his mind) giving shit to people below him is ok.

        Notice how these people never give shit to people “above them”, even though trump and others treat them like shit. He accepts shit from people above him and doesn’t understand why people below him don’t accept it from him.
