I don't think anyone but himself ever called Trump ultra intelligent or ultra competent

This idiot brought this on himself AND is probably at least partially responsible for the recent crackdown on Switch emulation by Nintendo. I won't shed a tear for him.

Here's a higher def version of that same picture.

Highlights

The size of very large houses dramatically increased since 1980, leading to a “McMansion effect.”

Homeowners’ satisfaction drops with nearby McMansions, but not neighborhood satisfaction.

In response to the “McMansion effect”, homeowners enlarge homes and incur more debt.

Isolated McMansions or those built before move-in don’t affect satisfaction or behavior.

Zoning laws limiting maximum house sizes could enhance welfare by reducing pressure to upscale homes.

Especially when you take into consideration the fact that the booster landed (and subsequently fell over) on a floating platform out at sea.

"I'll be great with X" definitively strikes me as a well thought out policy plan ...

I'm not sure "lash out" is the right choice of words here. If someone publicly called for your death while accusing you of a crime you didn't commit, and never even apologized when you're proven innocent, I'd say you can be rightfully extremely angry at them.

Housing is too cheap? Now that's a problem I'd like to have

You can usually tell it's AI by looking at the hands. Trump's are obviously way too large for this to be a real picture.

Honestly it's not the worst idea in a country surrounded by the sea, baked by the sun, and where most of the population is concentrated on the coasts. Just build shitloads of solar farms and power it that way. Probably better than sucking some deep aquifers dry.
