why the fuck is Donny always so angry?

He’s soulless but he’s not really angry. The anger is performative.


It's kayfabe.

Time to repeat the kayfabe explanation.

Trump's acting chops came from the McMahons WWE shows. He's adapted the kayfabe from WWE to political theater very successfully.

The kayfabe identifies a babyface (wonderful great TRUMP) , a heel (baddie), and a theme. The babyface's script is designed to encourage audience participation booing the enemy heel. Trump's heels are famously journalists (boooo), lunatic liberals (boooo), people from shitholes (boooo), etc.

He doesn't have to make sense in his performances. He just needs to hit his punch lines; lunatics...garbage... piggy...communists... and the audience does its part: "Booooooooo." And they vote based on the emotion they were trained to have.
