    Really nothing his actions could cause me to want for him is worse than being him.

    I mean…I could want for him to be him…but without the money and influence and power over others and enormous platform to spread his ideas and cult like following and 4 years as the leader of my country.

    He’d have to be one hell of a lot closer to a regular person before I ever wished anything positive for him.

      I want that for instrumental reasons like, “I’d really like it if I didn’t have to worry about my family being herded into camps because “Joe Biden was just too old” or something,” but yeah. It would be really good if people would get better about recognizing what he is and what it is he’s selling them, like a cut rate Leland Gaunt.

      I’d like him to be him with external consequences to his actions. Plenty of people are miserable by their own making. That fact is the core principle of a major religion even.

      That said, yeah he deserves the misery he brings himself. His inability to enjoy what he has and those around him is pathetic. A power, prestige, and conflict addict suffering because he can’t accept what he is.
