Not sure how anyone can blame Trump for this latest scandal. After all, if he could only count on his own FBI to take down his political opponents, then he wouldn’t be forced to extort a foreign leader to get it done. It’s common sense, and anyone in his position would do the same, right?
if a person believes in the dominant american existential ideology (which, to be fair, is more and more of a global thing now) -- that of libertarian hustling -- then it's not a matter of blame but praise. thanks to his white house legal team and other staff, he managed to figure out pretty early on that it's very much like the business world and he can get away with a lot. in a society where wealth, power and fame are all that matter, why shouldn't he behave this way? fake it 'till you make it.
that said, i do appreciate how you appear to see the humour in it. the one consolation these past ~3 years is being entertained by a man who, when he speaks, is unwittingly the funniest person on earth.
