Michael Cohen - The Nation Rejects Trump's Invented Reality
There’s an old saying from my days working for Donald: When reality knocks, tell security not to let it in.
And folks, reality has been pounding on the door of Mar-a-Lago like an Amazon driver with a stack of missed-delivery slips. But inside? Inside, Donald is lounging in his alternate universe; Trump World, a place where everything is “GREAT,” gasoline is magically two bucks a gallon, and the only inflation that matters is his ego.
Let me tell you: It’s a beautiful world. I mean really stunning. The kind of place where the birds sing show tunes, the oceans sparkle with gold leaf, and Trump’s cologne launches its own fragrance line. Meanwhile, back here on planet Earth where the rest of us live, Americans are paying 15% more for beef, 20% more for coffee, and apparently 6% more for a wrench. A wrench! Somewhere out there, a plumber is crying into a paper towel that also costs 5.5% more than last year.
But Donald? No, no. In his world, he gazes out the window, sees a gas station sign that once reminded him of $2 a gallon, and decides it’s a national accomplishment. Facts? Numbers? Data? That’s loser stuff. That’s for people who read instructions before assembling IKEA furniture. Donald goes purely on vibes. And the vibes say “cheap gas,” even if the receipts say, “Nope.”
