Reflecting Trump: Four Years of Projecting Our Collective Id
{However, for those who are either prostrating at the alter of Trump or flagellating themselves over his vulgarities, I just want to make this observation about the state of our politics and the put some context to the circus that is Trump. As grotesque as Trump’s behavior is, he is nothing more than a reflection of what we have become as a nation. He is trolling a society that loves to troll as a favorite hobby.}
{Now I know some will balk at the notion that Trump’s supporters are marginalized, the same way that his supporters balk at the thought that “minorities” are marginalized. But that is the cunning of splintering people based on identity and conditioning them to believe that only their pains are real. The truth is that unless you are in the 1% or have enough savings that you never have to worry about keeping up with the rent, you are in fact marginalized.}
{Trump played his part which was to play his supporters and detractors alike, he did so by channeling our inner id. So maybe the change we should be seeking are not the politicians in DC but our reflections in the mirror. You see, we end up getting the government we deserve ultimately, or in the case of Donald Trump we got the troll we projected.}
