We all know that Donald Trump is a total fraud, but if you want to watch a pretty good summary of precisely how shallow he is, I think this Steve Shives video is well worth a watch. In it, Shives outlines what a sham Trump truly is: everything he does is an act, intended to convince anyone watching that he’s something he’s demonstrably not. Yet Shives also asks quite an important question: how does Trump get away with it? Surely he should try harder. His shallowness is plain for all to see; rather than being a great business tycoon, Trump is a total failure who has bankrupted himself multiple times. So why are so many people falling for the shitshow? Why have so many people apparently been taken in by this charlatan, to the extent that they seem to revere and almost worship him? That is surely a very perplexing question, especially given that Trump, a convicted con-man who should be in jail, could soon be elected as American president again.
