Performative self-victimization. It tracks.

My IT department puts anything capable of storing data into a chipper when its time has come. The guys who load the trucks will throw laptops like frisbees into the steel cage that they lock the devices in between the office and the shredder.

They probably wouldn’t care if you gave your laptop a tattoo or even a piercing.

In the last little bit, I’ve noticed he’s had several weird ‘off script’ bits he’s been doing.
Commentators have picked up on it and have discussed them at length to highlight how cooked his brain is.

I think it’s part of an intentional effort to seed a mythos around him. Some true information, some false information. Overrepresent some of the fantastical stuff, especially through media channels to your low-information fans. Get a couple idiot commentators to start parroting a Jesus narrative for him. Pick a fight with the pope, maybe. See if you can dear-leader yourself into becoming the god king while your oligarch buddies fuck with the media and informational landscape.

Seems to be tracking.

(Editing to add: I want to be explicit that I don’t think this is a super-well executed plan. In terms of plans, This one seems to be written in crayon. But shit is definitely happening .)
