Pretty much.
Let these CACoons culled themselves from the earth
Everything was optics with that dude, which is the primary reason why I think he is a poor leader. Leaders care about accomplishing a goal, not setting up photo opportunities so fans can cheer.
Good leaders use photo ops all the time. If your taxes went up and daily commute got longer because the mayor was putting in a new road a picture of him cutting the ribbon on this road is a reminder that your sacrifice had purpose.
The problem with Trump is that his photo ops were horribly staged and, like you said, everything about him was optics. Everybody knows he didn't brave a murderous crowd to cross Lafayette square and get to his church. The police brutalized innocent people to clear a path and pepper sprayed a pastor who worked in the building. We also know that Trump knew almost nothing about the Bible and was not the least bit religious. There was no substance behind the image.
That said, maybe 50 or 100 years from now those finer details will be lost in history and everybody will look at him as some courageous figure. God help us all of that happens.

This interview had me laughing because of how selfish the wife was
Fair point. Photo ops for actual positive things that are in progress are inconvenient, but it's not completely awful because there is a win for the people.
There were way too many photo ops that never lead to anything with the Trump administration. The healthcare with the giant empty book during the Leslie Stahl interview, the Lafayette Square thing that was supposed to show strength(to whom, and against whom, was clearly racist), the leaders of companies coming on stage at the Whitehouse to talk only about the economy during a virus epidemic, Kim Jung-Un photo op that lead to them continuing weapons tests...and those are just off the top of my head.
I just found out that my sister has covid despite being vaxxed for work. She described it as "nothing worse than the sniffles" however my brother-in-law and their three daughters are not vaccinated. No word on whether or not they are infected or how bad it could get if they are.
I'm also not sure why the rest of the family didn't get it. Jehovah's witnesses are allowed to take vaccines, but there's still a fair amount of anti-vax sentiment in the church. Or it could just be that it's not as available in Canada as it is in the United States.
On the plus side it made my mom finally decide to get her own shots.
Why aren't people talking about the "underlying" health conditions anymore?
Is Covid killing these people or is it, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes etc....
It's 3am my time. Might fire up Madden 22. Probably hit the bed just when the bots leaving for work to be exposed to idiots like these 2 while they send their kids to be around their kids.
