Even if you thought you knew everything about Trump, there always seems to be more to find out about. At least that’s how we felt working on this for the past few months. He has one of the biggest digital footprints of anyone we’ve reported on, which made this a challenging gold mine. We had to leave out quite a lot, but think we hit on some pretty big points. Let us know what you think!

Johnny Harris: The real October surprise

Shehab Attia

Good timing with this video. He's really not as mysterious as people make him out to be.

Patrick Murray

Now, have a comparative historical run at Kamala, and her assent to power.

Robin Grille

Must be the most sane-washed person on the planet. Still makes my head spin how often media comments on his "policies", instead of his mental health.

Hi Johnny. We just wrote a proposal to end the war in Ukraine. We selected some youtubers to help spreading this idea. Is there any email where I can send you the document for you to check it out ? Thanks for everything. Best regards

"...for many Americans who would tune in to watch him "act" out this role he had been preparing for, his whole life." I LOVE that line! (Quotes around "act" added by me... ...mostly. 😉) It's funny tho, I wonder who is more to blame for the rise of Trump as an actual politician? I know a lot of people blame that time when Barack Obama and Seth Meyers roasted Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner... and I used to think that too... but that was just the tipping point. Ultimately, I really believe Trump would have disappeared into obscurity if not for Mark Burnett and the Hollywoodification of the false & inflated narrative Trump crafted over so many years of John Barron lies and ridiculousness. The true POWER of mass media and good storytelling. I still can't believe half the country is buying this tired boomer's bullshit. It's amazing to me, how powerful that "owning the libs" attitude is.
