The Fun, Soulless Grifters of Trump's Orbit

from Trump’s Bimbos, Live-Streamed Executions, & Crumbl Cookies | The Tim Dillon Show #517 · #517

5 min

Tim expands into a broader riff on the type of morally bankrupt but entertaining people who populate Trump's administration, comparing them to multi-level marketers and describing why such people are fun despite having no loyalty or integrity.

In this bit10 moments
  • Trump's orbit filled with people who would have sold subprime mortgages in early 2000s Long Island—no loyalty, no integrity.
  • Trump promised these people it would be fun and they'd make money; now it's neither and they're all broke except Five Guys.
  • Trump treats the midterms like a failing TV show and brings out self-tanned grifters, MLM scammers, and Vegas showgirl types to boost ratings.
  • His cabinet consists of MLM scammers, Beachbody promoters, Mary Kay cosmetics people, and part-time real estate agents in wigs.
  • These people's only interest is themselves—they're trying to get rich and get laid, using government jobs to make money.
  • Off the clock, these amoral grifters are actually great vacation companions—fun people who never make you feel bad about lying.
  • The catch: they're terrible if you depend on them, not real friends, and incapable of introspection or loyalty.
  • Everyone has one of these people in their life and hates that they actually like them despite knowing they're bad.
  • The real problem now is they'll tear each other's throats out the moment things stop working—no principles, no integrity, pure survivors.
  • Trump's grifters will end up ripping each other's faces off, which will at least be entertaining to watch.
