Trump thought it was a campaign rally, not a funeral

It is, everything he does is. American people can not stop sharing his image to every possible social machine system, media system, and commenting about every shake and move he does. For over a decade, that's all people do, endlessly discuss his facial cosmetics, his clothing, his hand gestures, his speech, his dialog, his messages, his golf course "touch grass" behaviors - and everyone adopt and mimics his use of Twitter and Truth Social to dehumanize those they disagree with. He is the most charming person to ever walk the Earth, bigger than Jesus and The Beatles combined, and absolutely nobody is discussing his power to invoke compulsive mocking among the audience. Nothing can stop his charm to make people abandon goodness, abandon understanding, and avoid seeing the forest for the trees.
