Quotes:
“He looks pathetic.
He is a ball of contradictions that together form a bully, a man who has built a menacing wall around the hollow of his self. He is brash to mask his fragility.”
“He has dispensed with all semblances of wanting to appear presidential and embraced what seems to be most natural to him: acting like a pig.”
