It still amazes me.
What did these idiots think was going to happen?
It's one thing to be a TV personality, or for your dad to be a TV personality and an E list celebrity, but no light shines brighter or hotter than the one focused on the POTUS and all of his dealings.
One minute I think Trump knew this and didn't want to win, but got elected by freak accident. The next I'm thinking these people were too stupid to understand what they were getting themselves into.
It's so perplexing to try and understand what Trump was thinking. Sure, he's a buffoon and utterly unqualified, but he does know about media exposure better than 99.9% of the people on the planet. Considering that, the idea that he didn't think he would win and didn't want to win explains everything. This picture may say a lot:

But then look at Don Jr. in the background. If his dad didn't want to win, Jr. certainly wasn't privy to that information.
Maybe Trump was just tired? Maybe the reality of what he'd done finally hit him in that moment?
We'll probably never know.
Oh yeah?
Well, if Trump and those around him are supposedly so stupid, why were they the only ones smart enough to collude with a hostile foreign power to get elected?
Are you president right now, mister smarty-pants? No. Because you weren't genius enough to collude with Russia. Trump did because he's a super genius who outsmarted everyone! 47th dimensional chess! Witch hunt! What about Hillary's emails? Deep state!!!!!!!!! [/rightist]
