Icon Totally agree, he's the front, the circus

Yes, very concise. I see him as the circus, the big distraction, he's out there in front of the store, all the noise, flashing lights, crazy stuff happening so everybody is looking at him, paying attention to his three rings of wild entertainment, while all those guys you mention pull the trucks up out back and empty the place. By the time the people notice what has happened, it is too late, everything is gone, the circus has packed up and left too. 

I think the hard part is getting people to recognize that, that he is the circus to distract them while they get robbed blind. That the guy entertaining you out front is connected to the guys with the trucks out back. 

Oddly, Trump supporters see him as the mastermind. The man with the plan. They think he pulls all the strings, and I don't think it is that at all. He is of low intelligence, easily manipulated, is willing to be the big buffoon out front no matter how stupid or grotesque he appears and is a giant egomaniac that just wants his cut.

I have this flaw in that I think a guy that is a total moron is not going to accomplish anything and he is going to screw-up over and over. Well, I guess if the idiot has a bunch of people behind him with money and the willingness to go all in and they tell him what to do, he can get elected president...twice. 

Nothing about Donald Trump impresses me. I would not hire the guy to shovel shit out of a barn. 75 million people hired him to run the country again. Many of the people that voted for him are the first people that he is going to betray and screw over. The Muslims in Michigan that carried him there, he already has screwed them. Union workers that backed him, he is already screwing them. People in small towns around the country, the people that will actually see his tariffs come out of their pockets...screwed already. 

And these are just an amuse-bouche for the real big screwing he is going to give everybody...except his wealthy backers. These regular people that backed him, so eager to take things away from people that they think they were paying for, well, get ready for all the stuff that you will suddenly see get taken from you. 

Yeah, to him, I think greed is his primary driver with a big side of having his ego sated. I'm not sure he really cares what happens beyond that. They literally have someone that follows Trump around and hands him little pieces of paper that say positive things about him. They call the woman the "human printer" or something and she apparently has long had a major crush on Trump. I mean, I guess you would have to if that is your job. Things like that I would think would concern some people. 

He likes Nazis because they like him and I think he just thinks Hitler was cool. All that strutting around in Hugo Boss outfits, the saluting, the cheering, being able to kill whomever you want...what's cooler than that? He thought Kim Jong Un and his set-up was the best, which scared the living shit out of the people working with Trump. 

So, yeah, I just see him as an idiot that is saved from his stupidity by all the people giving him money and telling him what to do...those people, all the people you mention, pulling the trucks up behind the store. They know how much a useful idiot is worth...and it is in the trillions.
