Everything Donald Trump touches becomes a circus. He creates most of the cacophony himself and then basks in the attention, negative as well as positive. He doesn't care, as long as he is at the center.
He thinks he can do the acts better than the skilled performers, so he fires some; others quit.
You'd think he'd shine in the roll of clown, but he has no clue what a joke is. When he takes over as magician, spectators start to laugh, thinking that he is now the clown. Then, when they realize he is dead serious, they only wish he would make himself disappear.
