No, actually Trump WON the debate. Because he lied about pets getting eaten. Masterful strategy.

Is this the same Scott Adams of Dilbert fame? He's been a political weirdo for years and years, so naturally he'd allow himself this cognitive dissonance.
He fell into the trap of thinking his success came from being a genius, so when people don't like his crappy opinions he just assumes everyone else is wrong
This explanation is awesomely succinct and also explains some people I know that I could never easily pinpoint why they bothered me. Thanks!
Unfortunately people like him rarely do. He got Dilbert dropped from most papers in 2023 for (in the most charitable interpretation) having a completely tone deaf reaction to a poll about race relations. Rather than think about why everyone got so angry with him he said his words were taken out of context and that they were hyperbole.

I know he never would, but I really want him to give the proper context for that to not be offensive.
That's pretty funny in the sense of a company trying to sell themselves as diverse and whatnot while being really offensive to the actual people. I can see a corporation doing that
Yes it is. He went full MAGA early on.
He's basically Milton from Office Space
