Jen Gerson: A government of children

Losers are always going to act like losers, regardless of how much material success they accrue. Their void isn't in the bank account, but the soul.

I think what continues to astonish me the most about the election of Donald J. Trump to the White House isn't that the Americans put their faith in a strongman. Many insecure democracies have done so before, and for a variety of reasons. No, what amazes me is that they picked a strongman who was so weak.

I mean, just look at this guy. Look at the guys with whom he has surrounded himself to run the most powerful country on the planet. He's appointed a collection of the biggest goddamn losers in modern history. It's an administration of pathetic Baby-Men Beta-Cuck weirdos who can't help but continue to act like aggrieved puppies even after they've secured real and material power.

Losers are always losers. They cannot help themselves.

These people have no chill. No self-awareness. Low vibes.

Take the Trump-appointed ambassador to Canada, Pete Hoekstra, who attempted to feign Big Man energy in a recent interview with The Hill Times at the U.S. Embassy.
