(9,260 posts)37. Yeah, that was a ton of free image shaping he got. He was packaged.
He even got paid for it, he needed the subsidy since he was a financial failure.
His trashiness was packaged as 'entertainment', (like Big brother survivor trash, like jersey shore real housewives trash, like kardashian trash) but the 'zero impulse control' characteristic of his was always an immutable characteristic of his outrageous 'entertaining' behavior.
He's always pushed that idea that he instantly reacts and makes a snap judgement, and his instincts are leadership genius. He should be in charge, and always be himself, always do the first thing that springs into mind, follow whatever instinctive motivation he has immediately. Success is sure to ensue, and he should get adulation for his decision and the success that follows.
