Former President Donald Trump is now at the “go to any lengths necessary” stage of his public career to get attention. To wit? He just posted a satirical version of Paul Harvey’s famous “So God Made a Farmer” video in which HE is the subject.

And yes, it’s just as creepy and a messianic bit of messaging that will cause many to cringe but others to fall to their knees in supplication.

The former president shared the video on his Truth Social account and was included in a slew of “joking but not joking” and over-the-top political videos for which Trump is known.

    No one seriously says this or believes this without a mental illness, he’s trying to get a rise out of his opponents. This is a textbook distraction technique, say something so ridiculous and stupid that your opponents are too busy dissecting your crazy to focus on what’s important. Trump incited an insurrection and is probably going to jail, and/or may be ineligible to run for president. Does anything else matter?
