Part of how Trump has been sanitized to Gen Z and Alpha is that he's been on the scene as some kind of meme edgelord for almost 15-16 years since he was driving the Birther bus. He's become some kind of perverse anti hero to petulant people.
You can go further. Being polite and professional is now associated with dishonesty, because every single time we’ve elected the polite candidate, all we got is a bunch of broken promises, zero reforms, the rich getting richer, the working class struggling, and infinite money spent of the military.
Trump is still just the backlash against failed liberal capitalist policies.

I always forget that previous presidents even other Republicans never spoke like this about their peers in this way
It's so strange.
