Ridiculous.
Tony had charisma.
And intelligence. And a family he actually cared about.
On top of what everyone else is saying, he was also highly competent and looked out for his friends.
Tony was also tough and smart…
Trump will take it as a compliment
Nah - Tony Soprano knew he was fucked up & needed therapy, so he went.
I’d argue that’s not why Tony went. Tony went because he was having panic attacks and it was harming his public image and perceived power. He did not think he was fucked up, and frequently stated how therapy was a waste of time and he didn’t need it.
Knowing you have panic attacks and seeking therapy for them is knowing you’re “fucked up”. No one would try to seek treatment for a problem they don’t have (a couple exceptions to this which themselves are some amount of “fucked up”).
Tony was way more fucked up than just the anxiety issue which was eventually solved. His narcissism prevented himself from recognizing that he created many of the problems in his life. He never acknowledged his faults. Panic attacks were the only thing he couldn’t ignore, so he sought treatment as a means to an end. The attacks made him look weak in the eyes of his fellow mafiosi.
That’s fair.
Absolutely not, at least Soprano was interesting
Trump’s reaction: They like me, they really like me!
