Yes, but the humour subsides when the actual problem with Trump's return emerges. First of all, he makes his main, indeed only claim to the White House on being a cracker jack businessman. Except that he is not, as he has lost a billion dollars, gone through four bankruptcies, trashed the public corporation he ran, stiffed endless contractors and small businessmen, and generally made an ass of himself to all and sundry. He crows about his wealth, but is afraid to let the public see exactly what that is. I'm not even going to get into the discussion that running a business in no way qualities one for the top public job, that is the topic of another thread.
Second, he endlessly paints himself as a patriot, and outsider who will fix all the waste and corruption in the country. Yet he is clearly the ultimate insider, the smarmy, let's make a deal, who do I have to pay off, let's see how many corners we can cut, let's screw those who can't fight back, corrupt figure that he pretends he is against. His goal is to make money, and he has trashed a lot of people along the way to this end, and has made clear during the debate, he thinks himself smart for not contributing to the extent possible.
Thirdly, what does it say about the judgement of a man who has made so many errors in the business sector, literally thousands of lawsuits and court cases against him, some even pending now, who goes into the premier forum for public judgement, the first debate, and smirks and calls himself smart for not paying taxes, due to his mistakes, miscalculations, buffoonery, and possibly fast accounting principles, not thinking of course that those obligations are being picked up by the most vulnerable and most humble in society- pensioners, workers with mandatory wage deductions, etc. He has a grin on his face, but is there much between the ears?
