Which is one of the things that makes him so popular to his "base."

I understood the relationship when I saw them arrive at George H. W. Bush's funeral. He and Melania were escorted down to the front by a uniformed Marine where all the former Presidents had already been seated. Trump was wearing a heavy overcoat, and he just shrugged it off and threw it in the general direction of the Marine, not even looking that way.

Everyone was the Help, plain and simple.

I'm still angry with Woodward for not revealing what he learned from/about Trump before publishing that last book.

it's weird how he can't help but telegraph every move he's about to make, or really would like to make, and how much of all this is based on projection

Yep. I figure he thinks the toilet is magic, the way a small child does. It’s the magic go-away place.

Just like Keenan Thompson said a few years ago on SNL, they ain't gonna do nothing to Trump. It was a skit mind you but I'm beginning to believe it. I'm tired of being sick and tired of that family and all their lies, corruption, and grift and no one in the justice department is doing a damn thing about him breaking the law right in our face 6 ways to Sunday. They act like they're afraid of him. It's disgusting.

He spent four of five years doing exactly that, but it's anybody's guess whether it was from arrogance, stupidity, or laziness.

"FOR GOD'S SAKE STOP ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN! I CANNOT HELP MYSELF!"

Although at least William Heirens was smart.
