Trump sorta faded from the limelight in 2021. He’s everywhere now. How much of that is because of his multiple prosecutions?

Don’t get me wrong, I think he should be imprisoned for treason. But if there hadn’t been these cases against him, how likely would it be that he just fucked off into the sunset and didn’t run for a second term? He might have run otherwise, but now he’s kinda forced to (as though he wasn’t a narcissist who craved attention – I’m not debating that).

Obviously, we can only speculate. But I’m curious what others think about this?

    I think we’re witnessing at a national scale what being a distant and poor father does to a child, followed by never dealing with those feelings.

    I think Trump has a need to be successful because it was the only way his dad showed any attention. Becoming president he thought would help but of course it didn’t, and then losing probably honestly shattered something in his brain. The dude needs major therapy, he thinks he’s so strong and tough but I honestly see a boy who will do anything to win his dad’s attention.
