Donald Trump held a rally in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, on Friday night to talk about the economy. Or, at least, that was the pretense. In reality, he took several bizarre detours, one of which was his fondness for chair arms and disinterest in women.
About 50 minutes into the rally at North Carolina on Dec. 19, Trump began boasting about tariffs on steel, automobiles, and furniture imports. He began reminiscing about his days in real estate before entering politics, shopping for furniture in the city. But this nostalgia soon turned into a self-portrait of obsession.
