The "who cares" Presidency [View all]

Unlike during his first term, trump can't seem to gather enough energy to project anger or even brag about his largely invented "accomplishments." He looks half asleep and ashen, has given up on dying his hair and eyebrows, and sometimes foregoes the makeup as well.

His answer to important policy questions is often a listless "I don't care" as a couple of days ago when he said he didn't care if the tariffs he forces on the economy cause car prices to go up. He also didn't care about signalgate, and said as much. He basically said he didn't know anything about it and wasn't going to do anything about it.

He doesn't know/care about what Elon is doing either.

I won't say it's weird because this is trump we're talking about. But it is creepy and shows again how afraid the corporate media is to comment on what is right in front of them.
