Not enough desk slapping to be believable.

You're asking this in a nation where tens of millions think Donald Trump is president material.

Why does the cartoon version of him look more like a real person than the actual guy?

[mpony@lemmy.world]

because talent is involved in trying to draw him
but no talent is involved in trying to be him

Probably caused by an Aztec deity-like entity flaying the skin to gain power for a resurrection

It has puzzled me too. I think it's a combination of:

• above average raw charisma (people subconsciously want to relate to him)
• VERY generous / manufactured audiences
• our strong subconscious tendency to want to laugh along with others
• deliberate abuse of the "this is so funny I can't help but break character" move, the most egregious and hateable thing the man does

People look at me like I slapped their mother when I say I find him 0% funny or likeable.
