My mind, a blunt instrument, fixates on a hypothesis of Trump's last term critiquing our obsession with him and his ability to control the narrative akin to a puppet master or master strategist. And my singular obsession with this train of thought grates within the obvious greater context. For me, it follows, is the original hypothesis correct? Or...

Can any informed person, any person with knowledge of systems and the interplay of the US government in world affairs, any person who has ever picked up any newpaper and read it cover to cover, really downplay the effect of a US President on global affairs? Obviously we need to debate what position we give the idea of US power within a democratized and so-easily manipulated media narrative, but are we wrong to give so much oxygen to this fire?

TL;DR: we all did this last time, we do this everytime but should we talk about Trump so much or are we merely all talking in the same echo chambers again?

For me, in my obsessed way, the only discussion is this: how much blood do we have on our hands within palestine? (it's a lot)
