Yup. He does a great job "selling" ideas that simply aren't grounded in reality.

Like that wall that Mexico was going to pay for. What an idiot. Did his base think the United States would just send Mexico a bill for work completed and expect them to pay it? You couldn't make this buffoonery up!

I had a boss like this. Had all these million dollar ideas but no capacity to consider that someone else had the same idea and it either made no damn sense or it had already been done and people went to jail for it. Motherfuckers dream up grifts halfway and think everyone else is an idiot or sucker for not acting on the "golden opportunity".

And then people buy these unrealistic ideas and when they get harmed by reality, they somehow blame 'leftists', 'progressives', 'demon rats', 'Obama' or any other bogeyman for it.
