“Rapid rise” is just another way of saying he has never yet accomplished anything, not in private life, not in public life.
He is a cypher. He is whatever you want him to be. He says whatever you want him to say. He stands for whatever you want him to stand for.
He shines with the reflected light of a million dreamers’ dreams. What he is under the surface they neither know nor care. What he has done or not done is of no importance. What matters is that he “is”.
Well said.
