Pretty much.
Now heās free to join the cast of Duck Dynasty as their less-lovable City cousin.
As best I can tell, Trump is one of the rare cases of someone who was born a biological person; but who identifies as a corporate person. He has been preparing behaviorally for reassignment for some years now; but the necessary technology is not yet available.

Iād laugh if it werenāt associating the horrific abomination and unclean mark on humanity that Trump is with decent trans people.

I would have liked to use words making it clear that Donald was a very, very, different flavor of ātransā; but I couldnāt think of either a good neologism, or any currently used word.
Trump is a ātrans personā in roughly the same sense that a Liche is a ātrans personā(born human, identifies as and eventually transitions to a powerful undead abomination).
Unfortunately, I couldnāt think of any way to shake the impression that Trump can best be described as effectively an analog of trans; but to corporate personhood, not a different gender or sex; but still a decent human; but I also couldnāt think of a snappy way of describing someone who seeks corporate personhood; because thatās unfamiliar and deeply squicky even by my relatively latitudinarian standards.
Iād associate trans people as a group with Trump even less than I associate transvestites as a group with J. Edgar Hoover(he, at least, was one; just markedly more despicable than most); but I just canāt think of a better way to describe what trump appears to be.
Ideas?

Iāve always thought of Our Reptilian Overlords as more competent, subtle, and quietly sinister; but it could be that even reptoids have their boorish C-students.

Come on now, I was a C student. Donald Trump is D- who payed $150,000 to the principal to avoid an F.
ETA, seriously though, I canāt tell you why I hate Trump so much more than any number of people who have been so much more harmful to humanity.
Maybe itās his infuriating arrogance, mixed in with his being right on the edge of being too stupid to consent to a contract? Likeā¦ Iām pretty sure if he were convicted of a crime and given the death penalty, heād be able to successfully demonstrate that he doesnāt understand why heās being executed, or what an execution means for him.

An Exxman?
I like the correspondence with āExxonā, a made-up corporate name designed to avoid human associations:
The company initially planned to change its name to āExonā, in keeping with the four-letter format of Enco and Esso. However, during the planning process, it was noted that James Exon was the governor of Nebraska. Renaming the company after a sitting governor seemed ill-advised, and the second āxā was added to the new name and logo.
Maybe it should be āExxmonā to avoid a gender association.

He isnāt in it to win. Trump is a personality. He is basically advertising himself. The fact that anyone lets this idiot waste anyoneās time with his idiot stunts is the real news. If anything, it is kind of sad. He is going to kick out some random no-name candidate from having a spot in the debates so he can self advertise. Who knows, that no-name candidate might have been some moderate Republican who wasnāt a complete nut who, if given a little exposure, might have won in the field of bumbling idiots and nuts that as they all self destructed.

Donāt listen to the nay-sayers, Donald!! Never give in! Donāt trust them!!
Weāre laughing with you, not at you!
Actually, weāre laughing at you as well. Mostly at you, in fact.
Weāre laughing at you. Thatās pretty much it. Yeah, weāre laughing at you.

Well, in part, I donāt actually hate him more, I just donāt treat hate as a particularly limited resource.
In other part, itās the arrogance, the hypocrisy, and the somehow-being-hailed-as-business-genius-despite-more-bankruptcies-than-you-can-shake-a-stick-at, many with lots of other peopleās money going right down the drain.
Hagiography isnāt my favorite genre to begin with; and Trumpās constant puffery is the manifestly dishonest kind, which is even less good. I recognize that numerous people are, as we speak, doing more egregious things to more people; but they just arenāt so damn visible about it.

I have the feeling if Trump actually ran a country, heād end up exactly like Kim Jong Un/Il/whoever is the dear leader now.
Heād probably put out press releases talking about how he never poops, but his urine is actually a literal golden shower more precious than the tears of baby seals or whatever. Then heād have his press-people proclaim that he scored 18 holes in one during his first ever round of golf. Heād execute his political enemies with anti-aircraft guns. Heād gold-plate the white house. Heād construct an obsidian monument to himself right next to the Washington monument, and make it twice as tall and cap it with bronze or something gold-looking, just to make it extra-ostentatious.
Heās got this mix of justā¦ Relentlessly awful, tacky taste which he seems to justify because itās expensive. āHey, how can it be bad tastes when it costs $500,000 to gold plate my Lexus?ā, a belief that the only measure of happiness and success is how much money he has. The belief that money == unlimited power, and the constant self-aggrandizement.
Thereās a lot of aspects to dislike about him, and heās proud of them all.
