Things which can be true at once:
A) It's entertaining
B) It's deeply dysfunctional which the Trump court always was/was always going to be
C) This happens when a political project is about vibes/personality cults rather than actual convergent beliefs
D) It's pathetic
E) They could make up

Arrest made for 28 million artificial streams on Spotify which generated $65k in revenue. That’s $0.0023 a stream. Who’s the fraudster again?
