To paraphrase a great American President: you were so busy keeping your job, you forgot to do your job.
It’s how he spent his youth, so why change now?
I would go with curious rather than closeted. Titillated? Definitely afraid of what that might mean.
This is how he seems to run his businesses. Big name, crap product, high prices, voila bankruptcy! Thats if it’s a long term project. Short term? Rump watches. People who voted for his business savvy should have expected this, but they don’t study history, not even the CliffsNotes.
Conveniently the lower part of the new construction, the security infrastructure, has mostly been paid for by “donations”. If he can’t pay for the display portion because he spent all the money he raised? That’s poor money management on his part. Sadly typical.
Sadly, might be the whole plan.
Why, exactly, does anyone care about what a star who’s fame is linked to “Inglorious Bastards”? Who cares what she wears to Cannes or even if she is at Cannes? I’d forgotten Anne Hathaway existed until she made a sequel to a 2011 movie. How long does fame last, should it last and why?
It’s not that the arguments have anymore depth, it’s that experience has revealed the inadequacy of the originals. That and the loss in American educational standards, especially in the red areas, has made complex analysis impossible. This is what’s left.
1800s capitalism at its finest. Cocaine in the soft drinks, morphine in the cough syrup, and radiation in the bottled water. New monopolies. Same as it ever was.
Peer pressure. Who wants to look afraid to shoot a Godoo? It was coming right at him. What’s he supposed to do? Let the guys give him the nickname Doodle? Sure it’s Doodler now, and his kids hate him….
