Is it Curious? I don’t think so.
I read a great many articles
about Trump, almost all of them negative, many of them exceedingly so. I am
sure everyone who is awake to the current scene is having the same experience:
being constantly apprised of our president’s stupidities, ignorance,
impulsiveness, and more of the same—no doubt all true.
What
surprises me is that as far as I know, there are no rebuttals issued by the
Trump camp. These attacks that would be slander if they weren’t true are simply
being absorbed, so to speak.
I have
a simple, two-part, explanation and wonder whether any readers have a more
complex one. [1] Trump himself
doesn’t read these attacks and, for the most part, is ignorant of them. And
[2], his aids and hangers-on have no motive to rebut them, even when on
occasion they don’t agree. For them, in the language of game theory: high risk,
no gain.
