Neat theory and all but there are literally 50+ million people that treat Trump like a god.
if theres a pocket of society that wants to treat you like a god you'll find it. and if you're good enough at something that pocket is going to exist.
that's setting aside of course that i dont think the celebrity fandom is a decent thing. its the free market of social interaction, and just as any big company can face lawsuits or boycotts celebs can as well.
We'll never get it perfect, but as time goes on we've held our elite to higher and higher standards. Although I think we've slid back in the past 50 or so years. Damn boomers.
