The New Monotony of Donald Trump

Politico

Donald Trump recently sent out a press release linking to a half-baked conspiracy theory about the outcome of the Georgia Republican primaries, and it’s not as though no one noticed, but it didn’t have the impact one might have expected.

It’s as if the political world collectively said to itself, The 45th president of the United States promoted a ludicrous allegation of vote fraud to try to explain away an embarrassing political loss? Of course, he did.

The Donald Trump who never relinquished the mic after his famous descent down the elevator and shocked and outraged his way through four transfixing years as president of the United States has become a known commodity, indeed predictable and even monotonous.

It’s a blessing and a curse for formerly cutting-edge musicians to see their once radically countercultural material show up in TV ads for automobiles or other common consumer products. There’s no danger that Trump will ever be similarly laundered into the mainstream, or graduate into a beloved or respected elder statesman as almost all American presidents do at some point.

But he can become boring, which will put at risk one of the pillars of his appeal as the most wildly entertaining, madcap national political figure of our lifetimes.

2. Can we make the flags and caravans boring too?

I am offended by the LGB, FJB, and Trump flags. One is obscene, and they're all meant to intimidate.

This is something we already know. We've stopped clicking on everything that has "Chump" in the title long ago.
