Mine mined blowd <| sep |> I ' d probably go with a goat . Because the goat wouldn ' t be all emotional about it right ? Dogs like commitment and i just can ' t have that . XD <| sep |> In case of the delivery guy ? Not at all . In marketting in general it matters a lot . Hell , it matters in social interactions a lot . <| sep |> Give it a few years and you ' ll be right <| sep |> Just like Italy in 1994 , the US has elected a brash , attentionseeking , entrepreneurturnedsavior of the nation as head of its government . No , no , no , no and no . Italy in 1994 was in the middle of the possibly biggest scandal of his political history . Basically every election in the previous half century had always been won by the christian centre party which together with socialistscommunists were more or less the only choices . That year it dissolved . Imagine if tomorrow GOP was no more . . In this context Berlusconi just managed to focus on himself everybody unwilling to vote the left , with a completely normal political agenda also , notice there wasn ' t even a relevant rightwing party before . For at least twenty years , Berlusconi dominated Italy ' s national identity , both politically and culturally . Of course , this was made easier by his media empire and influence . But the omnipresent attacks , especially when personal , did not help his opponents in the way they thought . Don ' t you realize that something doesn ' t existnot an idea , a politician , or a productunless it is on television ? And , you know , italy has no cable tv , and until 2008 DVBT switch television was basically six channels . 3 state owned and usually slightly aligned to current government and 3 totally owned by him fox news alignment levels . c o rruptreignofemperorsilvio ' s why , I guess , that was his biggest fault . Either way , the end result was that Berlusconi maintained a monopoly over the public ' s attentionSee above . Then even after the most lustful orgies , it ' s still easy to win devout catholics votes . But he was also elected by the many millions of Americans who agree with at least some of his ideas . Yes , true , there are some millions of Americans agreeing with his ideas . But to be honest , if I had to make an inference from basically everybody I tried to discuss with is that the majority of people voted for him because either framed as they wanted whatever he said which objectively can ' t count as his ideas thought he wasn ' t the devil reincarnated we could make a parallelism between the role of media once and nowadays , but the difference is that Trump owns none
