Ok but what I am really wanting to know is why did he seem presidential to her. There are lot's of likeable people out there who aren't seriously asked if they plan on being the president. Was she just acquiescing to the racist order of society with that question? The guy is white and wealthy so...let's give him implicit approval for being our ruler even though he's nothing but a trust fund baby/real estate hustler???
But is Trump even likeable? I guess you have to concede he is, for those who aren't repulsed by the guy, by definition, since he got elected. Still, he hardly ever laughs. He takes himself very seriously. He stupid. I've always felt he was like something you watch with morbid fascination, the paradox of Trump as the absolute worse thing our society produces while, at the same time, an iconic American success story because he is rich and famous. It just shows you how far people's minds are warped with conditioning that they would look at such a buffoon and, based on cues of social order alone, and not on any real qualifications at all, think that that person has a credible presidential ambition.
