Rogan's take on Trump's personality.

He describes Trump as "a very bizarre combination of an entertainer and a businessman... So, as an entertainer, he's like a comedian... he's as funny as sh!t...but he's a businessman - bottom line - he likes making deals... and he's got this ability to just keep going... ".

Well, there's something in that. He's psychologically fractured enough to be a natural comedian and low enough in trait conscientiousness and agreeability, combined with extremely high trait extroversion, to be a compulsive white-collar criminal.

nah

trump just understands the public

they dont care about policies

they care about who is the most alpha and who has the most confidence

trump says he's going to buiild a big beautiful wall

a few scalds ask him how he's going to pay for it?

trump says  "mexico will pay"

they say "the president of mexico says he wont pay"

trump says "the wll just got 10 feet taller"


there is no logic, only energy and confidence

trump gets it

the scalds dont

because they have no "theory of mind"

He does - A certain component of the American public.

In the way machiavellian and narcissistic mindsets understand people.

His mindset is that of an autocrat and his relationship with the people is, as one autocrat put it, 'It's easier to fool the people with one big lie than a thousand small ones'.

Although, Trump might counter that with: 'It's easier to fool the people by entertaining them with outrageous, ludicrous lies, than with those which require a mind and have regard for truth'.

Ah yes, but can he walk down a ramp?

The "noble Ron" contested the election too, dear, do you recall?

You may have forgotten. What do you have to say about him now?

It might have been a bit of an ask of Rogan, who is almost always accommodating and non-confrontational with his guests, (unless it's banter with comedians he knows well), but with his being a bit of a health nazi with food and exercise, he could have challenged Trump when he cunted on about how unhealthy Americans are with their eating habits.

Trump even whipped out a chart to show where Americans are relative to other peoples.

Trump is a junk food junkie.

Of course, Trump shitted on about how doctors are amazed at how fit he is when he goes for a physical. Rogan almost burst out laughing, given how fit Rogan is, but contained himself.

I challenge you to listen to the latter without scrolling, Gordon.

Up for a bit of weaving?

I believe you are.
