Respect is a two way street and it's abundantly clear Trump has never had an iota of respect for anyone but demands respect from others.

Nobody respects this man. The people surrounding him are exploiting him just like Trump exploited his own father Fred Trump during his final years. They feign respect of Trump while holding the knives to stab him in the back behind their own backs, waiting for the moment to strike.

I wish they'd hurry up.

The knives are to stab each other the instant he dies, a la Stalin.

Death of Stalin has given me a lot of comfort in recent years

Nobody respects this man.

He's a tool to extract surplus labor value from the country. And in that regard, he's a national treasure. The folks in Trump's inner circle have enriched themselves enormously. And the wealth they've accrued will be recycle into future generations as a means of bribing, extorting, and abusing the next generation of "democratic" leadership into furthering the cycle of abuse.

When Trump dies, he'll be held up with the same veneration as Andrew Jackson, William McKinley, and Ronald Reagan. The icon of what a President should be - an extraordinarily useful idiot.

They feign respect of Trump while holding the knives to stab him in the back

Trump won't be stabbed in the back. He's the golden goose, shitting out the US Treasury like clockwork. He'll be celebrated for ages by the oligarchy. The gift that never stopped giving.

If they had the guts to stab him in the back, they would have long ago. They're cowards.
