Title: Can Donald Trump Finally Be Considered Cool?
Donald Trump has made headlines recently as he dances the night away, surrounded by a sea of loyal supporters at campaign rallies and award shows. As he exits his second term in office, a question is lingering: Is Trump finally cool? The former president has had his fair share of controversy throughout his career, and many have wondered if he’s ever fit in with the likes of his peers in the presidents’ club. Despite never receiving a warm welcome from some notable figures in his early years as president, Trump has adapted, grown, and learned to become a strong force in his final term in office.
A comparison is often made between Trump’s early presidency and his first four years out of office, as he continues to defy the media and opposition politicians. Some wonder if his efforts to rebuild himself and solidify his standing will be enough for him to achieve the “cool” factor he’s often criticized for lacking.
Trump has managed to develop his own persona over the years, embracing the strength of his base and harnessing his celebrity. Despite two attempts on his life, Trump shows signs of being more refined, more relatable, and even more humorous.
As for “cool” in the president’s club, Obama himself had remained stony-faced during his exit from the White House. On the other hand, his words on Trump hinted at disdain and a clear dismissal of his worthiness for office. But can Trump prove those doubts wrong, even to this day?
It may just be about this: that despite the absence of cool in a certain part, there might still be some essential quality worth ascribing the two-term presidents status. As such, his achievements and lessons are what might, ultimately, shape his presidency – a lesson taken from a rather peculiarly titled article and all its intriguing examples.
With words to live by from none other than Taylor Swift, ‘cool’ should have no impact for Trump anymore: “I could be sitting at the front row at an award show and I still don’t feel like a cool kid”.
