I don’t know why but I find it somehow extra egregious when an already wealthy figure from somewhere far afield of politics is a Trump supporter.

Tom Brady, Tiger Woods, Gary Player, Herschel Walker...

Guys who made millions in sports.

Unlike the Sean Hannitys and Tucker Carlsons, they get nothing from Trump.

There is no benefit to backing him.

They back him because they see something in common with him.

And they have no aptitude - or concern - for how he is injurious to people with less than them.

It just hits me as a huge tell that the person doesn’t give a remote fuck about the world around them or the people in it.

An insulated selfishness beyond measure.

A particular weakness of character made worse by money rather than better.
