People, Personas, and Politics 42 - The Trumpian Elephant in the Room Scott Douglas Jacobsen & Rick Rosner July 1, 2017 [Beginning of recorded material] Rick Rosner: To figure out what would Trump do, as others have noted, ask, "What would a dick do?" That generally conforms to what Trump will do. He lies is blatant and not convincing, where all through his campaign he was talking about his 100 days would be the greatest first 200 days of any president. Now, in day 98, this whole past week. Given that he hasn't been that successful and has failed at a lot of stuff, he says the 100 days is a silly and arbitrary number. Somebody told him to talk about 100 days. Obviously, it was his idea. It is further upsetting that his followers haven't turned away from him, even though he is doing a bunch of things that aren't terrible. He is gleefully doing a bunch of things that are terrible for the country. The whole situation makes it really hard to - when you're doing comedy noodling in your head - come up with things that are in the public consciousness. The way airplane food may have been in the public consciousness in the 80s to make jokes about. It is impossible to avoid this big orange Trumpian elephant in the room.
