Believe what? That I’m in or that he’s out?
Hmm. Not sure. Running shoulders is not a sign of acceptance. Trump is a prop. A picture with him is not a sign of equality. More like a picture with Mickey mouse at Disney. He’s a common type: inserts himself into the optics of narratives without being in the stories.

Almost any prominent public figure of 198–2015 would have said sure yes to a trump photo request. But he wouldn’t have been called by anyone for advice on anything. Literally nobody he wasn’t paying ever gave a shit about his opinions except theatrically on The Apprentice.

I’ve met too many such people not to know the type. Nobody respects their intellect or insight, and they’re not even important enough to engage or dis in public. My point is Trump *never* had access. Even as President. Not even in the 80s. He’s always known it and it burns him up

That’s what happens when you have a fundamentally transactional personality. People can’t see you as human because you can’t see anyone as human. They may use you, allow you to buy your way into some things, but where mutuality of recognition of humanity is needed, you’re out.

That proximity is where we differ I guess. The ability to insert, to be humored even if for a few mins, at that scale, consistently for decades, mean closer to in than out for me. Part of the story, just in volatile fashion. Now, he’s done, of course

That may be a bias of yours being involved in dance/music/fashion. In LA/music/Hollywood, being part of the optics is basically almost everything. But in most fields it literally doesn’t matter. To the point that true insiders often view it as an annoying distraction/burden.
