Come on. It’s rather presumptive to assert that no one likes Donald Trump. I mean the guy is married and his gorgeous wife … oh yeah, his wife doesn’t really seem to like him much. He made her sign a prenup and she’s been seen to physically reject his advances in public. He did have a much publicized affair right after their son was born and recently she’s been speaking out against his policies of locking up kids at the border. So yeah, probably not his wife.
Well his long-time friend and “fixer” Michael Cohen certainly must like Mr. Trump since they worked so closely for ages on … oh, yeah, Cohen just flipped on Trump in order to save his own neck. He’s now exposing all of Trump’s nefarious legal schemes to the special counsel. So no, probably not his lawyer.
Well certainly his campaign advisor Paul Manafort must - … oh right, Manafort just signed a plea bargain to reduce his jail time and is now spilling the beans on all of Trump’s Russian collusion to Mueller. Not him.
I’m sure there are people in the White House who … would … actually no. The Op Ed in the Times talks about a coterie of staffers who have to stop Trump from suddenly pushing the nuclear launch codes and a myriad of other insane impulses. The others there seem to just be lackeys who would do anything in order to just preserve their jobs. Not much in the way of “likers” there.
Well his voters … but they don’t really “know” the guy do they? In fact, they have to be aware that Trump would rather shoot himself in the head rather than sit down at a table for a single meal talking to the likes of them and their poor common working-class asses.
Well, what about his kids? Baron, Tiffany, Eric, Ivanka, and Donnie Jr.? Well the next people to flip on Trump are said to be Ivanka and Jared, hoping to preserve any sort of societal status they have left in New York after Trump leaves office. They’ll flee daddy like necrotic rats from a sinking trash barge. Tiffany has been MIA for months so she probably can’t stand the guy or she would be at his side spouting nonsense constantly. Eric is an idiot. Does he even know who his father is? And Donnie Jr. is a sociopath. By definition they can’t like anyone.
That leaves Barron, poor little Barron. He’s just a kid. He’s 12. He must love his dad. I mean, sure, Barron hardly ever sees his dad, or ever really saw his dad during his entire lifetime, but he must look up to him for … some reason … from afar. You know, the way 12-year-old boys do. Okay, so not many pre-adolescent boys really like their parents, but he looks … well he looks miserable. He has that same glint in his eye that haunts the other two sons and makes him look like he could pull out a gun any minute and shoot everyone in the room. But recently he’s started greasing his hair back just like his dad and the other two and … oh, that’s probably not a good thing. Let’s just leave Barron out of this.
So the answer is no. No one likes Donald Trump.
But that won’t keep him from trying. After all he refers to himself in the third person all the time as “your favorite president”. That should help.
