Donald Trump has always been, as Stormy Daniels said, an orange turd. He's used enormous inherited wealth to block out orange reality by surrounding himself with paid yes-men and Euro-trash.
Wealth enabled Trump to make those allowed near him agree that he is handsome, witty, intelligent, successful, etc. The rich can, like Gatsby, make their own reality at times.
Trump eventually forced a corrupt and vulnerable political party to accept his terms. But these last few weeks he has been hunched in a drab New York courtroom, unable to leave. Not allowed to talk. He has been told to his face that he is an orange turd.
Trump's reaction could hardly be more primitive. He sits for hours with his eyes closed, pretending to sleep in a room where no one sleeps.
What if, facing more serious charges in the years ahead, he is sent to prison? Will he do time with his eyes shut?
