Dear Editor, Trumpist politicians today are like pubescent girls. When girls first come into possession of their curves, they start to realize the power they have to attract the gaze of boys. Some who lack good parental instruction take to believing they won’t need much other than hips and breasts to get what they want out of life. They lose interest in things that take effort.
