In the good old days, long before Reverend Al Sharpton had massive stomach surgery, he would do anything to be with me, but he has to be faithful to the Radical Left in order to keep his job as a Television Commentator for NBC. Also in the group is the Great James Brown — I knew 'em all, the good, the bad, and the ugly!

"Sharpton would do anything to be with Trump in the past"

Half True

Sharpton and Trump did have a social relationship and appeared together at events, though 'would do anything' is hyperbolic

Analysis: Trump Post on Al Sharpton and James Brown (2025-12-04)

Content Summary

Trump shares a photo showing himself with Al Sharpton and James Brown, using it to assert his social dominance and broad associations while diminishing Sharpton as someone who once sought Trump's company but is now constrained by political allegiance.

Authorship

Posted at 6:51 PM EST (Trump likely at Mar-a-Lago or White House). The stream-of-consciousness style, the nostalgic personal anecdote structure, the body-shaming reference to Sharpton's surgery, and the casual "I knew 'em all" phrasing are strongly characteristic of authentic Trump composition. The lack of polish and the gratuitous personal attack embedded in an otherwise nostalgic post suggest genuine authorship.

Psychological Analysis

The post is a classic narcissistic supply-seeking exercise through association with famous figures. The Sharpton commentary serves dual purposes: (1) asserting that people of prominence once sought Trump's favor, and (2) devaluing Sharpton for perceived disloyalty. The gratuitous mention of Sharpton's "massive stomach surgery" is ego-syntonic sadism — humiliation deployed casually, almost as an aside. The reference to James Brown as "the Great" while simultaneously claiming personal familiarity asserts status through association.

"The good, the bad, and the ugly" functions as a self-positioning device — Trump as the worldly figure who transcends all categories, knowing everyone.

Rhetorical Devices

The "in the good old days" framing invokes nostalgia while implying decline. The loyalty/betrayal frame ("he has to be faithful to the Radical Left") projects a transactional worldview where relationships are entirely instrumental.
