No, let’s don’t. We don’t have to reason with him. He is unable to reason. No understanding of tyrants.
He is crazy. He is fat. He is immature. We can rightly call him a crazy, fat boy.
My Korean students think the name is hilarious. They also love the US.
The fat boy reminds me of Anthony in the Twilight Zone episode “It’s A Good Life”. He has absolute power. I doubt anyone EVER says No to him. He grew up (physically at least) with no connection to others as equals and was surrounded by bodyguards even when attending school in Switzerland. It would not surprise me if his father exposed him to brutal torture and executions like Saddam Hussein did to his sons. His means of executing high ranking officials who he doesn’t like makes the Joker seem like a rational, compassionate human being.
His Generals are most likely afraid of him and, like Anthony, bend over backwards to tell him how wonderful he is and practically compete with each other to give him the most praise.
