    Mildly surprised to see GWB holding phone the right way. Rather surprised to realize I have never seen DJT hold any kind of phone as a phone.

    I feel like in DnD terms, Bush would have low-mid Int, high char, mid wisdom.

    Trump, would have low Int, low wisdom, low-mid char but high luck.

      I completely disagree, him minmaxxing charisma was the sole reason he was the perfect candidate for the role of being elected and then doing some absolutely vile things.

      Certain people are very happy their plan is being executed and they will not be the ones to take the blame if anything goes wrong.

        No, it wasn’t, he got lucky. You want to know what a high Cha score looks like, look at Obama.

        Trump is mid cha at best, he was just born rich and does evil shit so can get ahead at others expense.

        No, not at all. Trump is very uncharismatic (not that there isn’t worse, look at Vance and Miller), Americans are just incredibly stupid marks and the media is very complicit in sanitizing his image.

          The man is a head of a personality cult, just because his charisma is not appealing to you, doesn’t mean he lacks of it.

          There are people that still worship him despite him headfucking them over and over continuously. You don’t get to do that without charisma.

          Americans are just incredibly stupid

          How does that prove your point? Yes, MAGA at this point are just a bunch braindead zombies, but they still need a figure they will want to follow, and again - it takes charisma. They won’t follow Vance or Rubio, that’s for sure.
