I'm not generally inclined towards seeing the silver lining in the Trump presidency. He's still doing real harm in a lot of ways. But there is perhaps something to theory that he's unintentionally demonstrating an important lesson for Americans. That the President of the United States, the "most powerful man in the world," can be insanely incompetent, borderline-illiterate, outrageously corrupt, and leading an administration in total chaos... and yet life more or less goes on as normal. Even the machinery of the federal government continues mostly-unaffected. And with a few (still very important!) exceptions, most people's lives have been mostly-unaffected beyond watching the side-show spectacle of it all.
Bill Clinton once tried to spin his tawdry scandals with the hope that maybe he'd helped "demystify" the Presidency. No kidding. We've now somehow reached the point where the President can have a babbling word-salad meltdown for half an hour on live TV, with a trio of his most loyal cheerleaders visibly cringing their way through it... and it wasn't even the biggest news story of the day.
Deflating America's messianic god-emperor centre-of-the-universe expectations for the Oval Office is exactly the opposite of what he wanted, but if Trump does end up having that effect... I'll take it.
let's support each other
It would be even more helpful if Congress actually did their jobs. This absurd idea of a all-powerful president is largely because Congress keeps delegating most of their responsibilities to the executive branch.
First off I want to say that I do not believe the US President is the most the powerful person in the world. If he was, his actions would actually make a difference, for good or for bad. Instead, he flip flops and does not do anything significantly different than the previous presidents. Those that did ok before Trump mostly continue to do ok. Those that were suffering before Trump continue suffering with Trump. If something catastrophic happens in the next 2 years, it would almost certainly still happen under a different president.
The political system is designed to follow a fixed pattern. Choice is just a mere illusion.
I think Stan Lee is more powerful than Trump. His Marvel Universe has touched the world.
