"Listen, because this is important: any time Trump says he's 'going to make people happy', or that 'you're going to be happy in the future' . . . that means he has got nothing and he is trying to end the conversation," he explained. Oliver then points out that Trump's explanation to the press on his decision to end DACA illustrates this tactic perfectly — but adds, "he doesn't just do it with immigration, he does it with everything." And just what does "everything" consist of? "Border safety, the Middle East, steel tarrifs, replacing Obamacare, and infrastructure," to name a few. What really drives it all home, however, is the metaphor he uses to illustrate the flaw in the president's many, many vague answers to policy questions. "Laying out a government policy that's just 'you'll be so happy' is like naming a restaurant You're Gonna Be So Full," he says, adding, "OK, that's the goal. But how? What am I filling myself with? Is it Asian fusion or wet cement?" https://www.popsugar.com/news/John-Oliver-Trump-Saying-People-Happy-When-Confused-44001221 |

Just look back on all the times past, when then Private Citizen Millionaire Investment Manipulator Trump promised his own backers that THEY would "be so happy and impressed" with things he named after himself.
Notice how never once, did any unbiased awards groups ever find his (usually eventually failed) schemes to in fact BE the "most wonderful, quality experience ever"?? |

I think of those backers any time I hear his 'promises' or self aggrandizing. I think also of how he told Fallon , in response to how he so vehemently supported Clinton only four years before and now swears she is terrible stated clearly and with no shame ... that in his position(the position he has had since college) he 'just says stuff' and bullshits people .... |
