Reading:“Trump Smells” goes viral. This is the perfect time for his false image of a strong man to transform into the vulnerable, aging man he is. The media needs to stop boosting his ego by calling him a dictator. He loves being called a dictator. He admires dictators. The label is a compliment to his narcissistic personality. Its base embraces the label. The media must now cover his weaknesses: his old age, his reported incontinence, his accusations, his financial fraud disasters, his adultery, his ignorance of the Bible and the Constitution, and his poor grammar and vocabulary.

Trump publicly announces his affinity for the philosophies of autocratic governments led by dictators. This is important information that voters need to be aware of. However, people become desensitized to the terms dictator, autocracy and anti-democracy. Instead of hurting Trump’s image, it helps him. The gullible base has bought into the lie that dictators have characteristics worth admiring. Hypocrisy, lying, and gaslighting are communication methods Trump uses to maintain the allegiance of his cult followers. Instead of using the labels that reinforce his popularity, we should now talk about specific facts that weaken his image in a pervasive way.
It’s true that Joe Biden is old, but so is Trump. As president, Biden demonstrates great mastery in understanding foreign policy, national security and economics. Although he moves slowly and mixes up the occasional sentence, he demonstrates a mental and physical fitness for the job that Trump cannot match. Furthermore, Trump sometimes forgets which city he is in, misquotes the law, distorts his words and has reportedly had episodes of incontinence. He clearly has no place on the pedestal of a strongman.Adam Kinzinger and Michael Cohen are among those who say Trump stinks. Reports of Trump having poor hygiene or incontinence are circulating on the Internet. Kinzinger is surprised that Trump’s odor issue is becoming news. As mean or immature as it may seem to talk about this sensitive topic, it is essential to do so. Replacing the ego-boosting “dictator” narrative with topics that demean Trump is helpful in undermining his hero status among voters. The image of the strongman dictator needs to be mirrored with the image of the indicted, fraudulent, sexually abusive, impeached, election-losing, smelly criminal defendant. This will achieve an important goal: replacing his confident arrogance with weakened humiliation.
FACTS ABOUT TRUMP THAT HUMILIATE HIM
86 former colleagues and friends cooperate with prosecutors in his federal indictments
Talk about adultery
His suspicious bone spur was discharged from the army
His negative comments about John McCain and other war heroes
Negative comments about her weight or hair
The fact that he never won the popular vote
Losing the presidency after just one term.
Melania does not appear with him at public events.
References to him being a business fraudster and not being as rich as he claims
Not on the Forbes list of richest people
He claims to be filthy rich as he heads toward a $250 million civil judgment in New York for business fraud. He practices the fascist leader’s strategy of repeating a lie over and over to get people to believe everything they are told. Strong men do not complain, do not blame, do not threaten, do not intimidate, do not insult, do not plead the fifth, do not escape justice, and do not lie. His masculinity is obviously fake and weak.
When reporting on dictatorships and anti-democracy, the media should raise awareness of how these forms of government reduce individual freedoms. Media pundits need to stop talking about Trump as a strong dictator. MAGA members love dictators as long as they are Republicans.
