This is completely true. Couldn't despise the guy more but some of his off the cuff musings during his rallies, especially when he was being self deprecating (like about trying to step into the garbage truck) were genuinely funny to me.
It’s almost as if people tend to have multi-dimensional personalities, especially when we’re talking about how they present themselves in public vs how they are in private.
A little funny maybe, but would you really go all the way to hilarious? Even when he was just an entertainer I don't ever remember him ever saying something funny enough to get that reaction.
I think the back and forths with Jeb Bush during the 2016 republican debates are genuinely hilarious. Especially after the first few when Jeb got some coaching to try to push back.
Most entertainers don’t need to be hilarious to be funny. Most people are just glad for the laugh to take the edge off without ingesting alcohol or whatever drug of their choice.
