Don't Play Trumps Game
He's trying to build a disgust discount into every story about him. If this were ANY other president, the disgust would be overwhelming that he would be driven out of office already. But if he can manage to build a disgust discount into our reception of him, so that we say, "well, he's Trump, what do you expect?" then we are allowing him get away with murder. Do NOT fall for the trap. Do not discount the level of disgusting corruption and evil as just Trump being Trump!
