That "Thank you for your attention to this matter" sh*t is Jack Nicholson, straight out of The Shining's end scene [View all]
I see that "Thank you for your attention to this matter" in his Mar-a-Lago fatwas and I can hear Nicholson running through the maze yelling "I'M COMIN' FOR YA DAN!"
I do get low / no self-esteem issues.
I do understand the dynamic Trump had with his old man, and how completely KKK Freddie skull-fucked his kid for LIFE.
I get it.
And I understand WHY Trump does a LOT of things, and the end result he has in mind. As far as the MAGAts go, maybe it works with them 100% of the time.
One of the things that makes Trump so fucking TEDIOUS is his addiction to REPETITION, whether it's the "Thank you" shit or his moron dance.
There's a very twisted, pathological disconnect in Trump's psyche. He relishes being hated because he feels that any and all attention equals worship.
Part of it is the bullying essence...he knows people hate his fat ass, and that the overwhelming majority of people can't do a goddamned thing about it. Unless God (or maybe the Republicans) wises up before January 20, 2029, we have Trump for another 1061 days.
So I am sure that part of his motivation for the "Thank you" shit is Trump rubbing it in, playing Hitler, playing his fictional "Apprentice" character.
He's basically telling America...and the world..."Give me the bat, Wendy."
