Donald Trump’s journey from the world of business (with WWE along the way) to the Oval Office is a story of the power of showmanship and the blurred lines between entertainment and politics.

As the only WWE Hall of Famer to become President of the United States (so far), Trump’s political career has been significantly influenced by his experiences in professional wrestling.

There are no blurred lines between entertainment and Politics is all entertainment. Who gets the nomination? The photogenic taller man or the homely but extremely brilliant shorter man? The ivy leaguer or the less well known but serious hard working degree? Pete Bootijeg or a good family man or woman with faith principles? It is all entertainment on both sides. Except for Swawell - he has the good looks but farts cabbage in Hillary’s direction.

Good point. Or as Rush used to say: Politics is showbiz for the ugly.

I think of Donald Trump as the Rowdy Roddy Piper of American politics. As Roddy liked to say: “Just when you think you’ve got all the answers, I change the question!”

Check out the current Trump - Musk grudge match to see that nothing has changed. The more the drama, the better the show

Musk has been getting death threats because of his DOGE support of Trump, Teslas are being torched, their drivers are being harassed and Musk's companies are getting wrongfully accused of preferential government treatment.

So how do you solve a problem like that?
