Trump can’t be imitated. That’s why Dems hate him.
By Patrick Totty
Does linoleum have anything to do with Donald Trump? Yes, it does. A lot.
I recently came upon an article about the effects the introduction of linoleum had on British society. People were fascinated by linoleum’s absolutely precise checkerboard pattern, a product of the new industrial era’s ability to churn out one precisely made good after another, lacking the telltale flaws or imperfections of handmade objects.
At first, only the wealthy could afford linoleum, so it quickly became a sign of taste and high station. The rich loved showing their guests their expensive new floors, yet another sign of their ability to afford expensive objects.
But the unanticipated result of industrial manufacture was that what was once rare and exotic soon became widespread and affordable. Linoleum’s price quickly dropped as factories churned out more and more of it. Linoleum went from being rare to common, and finally tawdry, a flooring associated with tenements, greasy spoons, and one-hour motels.
This is where The Donald comes in.
