    What's wrong with this? I get to at least a Tower 7 when I think about 9/11, too.

    Yeah, checks out. Homoerotic nationalism is as good a definition of fascism as anything.

        Socialist Realism lionizes the working people while fascism tries to hold up an idealized vision of the race. Superficially similar but quite different under the hood.

    Trump loves hot guys

    “We have the F-35s — it’s stealth — and I was at one of the areas where they’re displaying it and I went up to the pilots and, honestly, they’re better looking than Tom Cruise,” the president said.

    “Good movie,” he added. “Good guy, too, by the way.”

    There were other matters to discuss, of course, but the president’s enthusiasm for the stunning looks of F-35 pilots was just scratching the surface.

    “The face is equal, maybe slightly better.” “The body’s bigger and stronger,” he said. "They can definitely fight. They’re the real deal. These guys are so good looking. I said ‘You could be a movie star, go to Hollywood.’ [They responded] ‘No sir, I like what I’m doing.’

    “You’ve got to see them,” Trump continued. “Just like central casting.”

    Remember all the grifters that popped up and fell off with Trump’s first term? Get ready for round 2 of that.
