As president, Trump has fostered the divisions that he leveraged to get elected. Instead, as a Trump critic with access to a microphone, Ball has been a focus of Trump’s rage for several days running. While LiAngelo pointedly thanked Trump (after the president hinted that he should), LaVar declined to do so in an interview on CNN Tuesday. Americans, broadly speaking, would prefer a traditionally presidential president, with 70 percent in a recent poll suggesting he change his approach to Twitter. This may be modern-day presidential in the sense that the president in this modern day acts this way.
