The Washington Post took a deep dive into former President Donald Trump's life after leaving the White House in disgrace, and it's about as sad as you might have imagined.
The outlet reports that longtime aide Molly Michael "called around to Trump's network of allies across the country requesting that they dial the former President to boost his spirits with positive affirmations. There's nothing going on, she has told them, adding that his friends know how restless he gets when nothing is going on."
Oh, I wouldn't say that nothing is going on.
"Multiple Trump advisers said there is no senior aide living in Florida full time, with advisers flying in and out as needed. "He needs someone there to say, 'Here's a really bad idea, and this is why.' I don't think he has that kind of crowd around him right now," the report states. "Nor does the president want anybody like that," said David Urban, a longtime Trump adviser turned critic."
This is rather pathetic:
A longtime Trump confidant termed his Mar-a-Lago existence, where he has tried to re-create the trappings of the presidency, as "sad." Comparing it to life at the White House, this person added, "It's like a Barbie Dream House miniature."
Sounds about right. Trump, who has always had a fake persona, sits in rooms adorned with nauseating gold colors as the one-term President sits back on the shitter after he has a good Ketchupping session on the walls of Mar-a-Lago, and tells himself positive affirmations: "I am the President. I won. I beat Sleepy Joe, and I look like Superman."
