Honestly, I think that's the top reason he went into politics. Narcissists need everyone to pay attention to them

That's a pretty interesting observation, i never considered that.

I think that is partially true

Wether by design (probably) or accident, the cheeto takes all the headlines and there is no space left for the actual crimes they're committing, like making sure the rich get richer by tax cuts, the tarrif thing, etc.

I think a lot of it is just designed to ensure people aren't paying attention to what really matters, a magicians trick if you will

Less of a magicians trick and more like that time you were 2 and dad took your nose. Some fuckers still out there everyday looking for their damn nose.
