A Chat about Tehlaanpuh

(Tehlaanpuh, might be written 特婪堡 in the world’s oldest living form of writing, and spells t-r-u-m-p in Tehlaanpuh’s own mother tongue)

A: Is it really necessary for this Tehlaanpuh Administration to take on the literally kingless Middle Kingdom so aggressively and relentlessly?

B: Probably not.

A: Then why did this Tehlaanpuh do just that?

B: As the head of this Administration being somehow wagged by its tail, this Tehlaanpuh Being sees that as a must before it goes to Heaven. This Tee Being possesses a sort of extremely hyped up spirit that spontaneously generates a fiery desire for obsessively, desperately wanting to show the universe that It is the Greatest and most powerful Being! It wants to make the Administration and the land governed by it, as It says, Great again, and all other parts of the planet to serve the Greatest Boss human kind has ever had!

A: Why does this Tee Being want so obsessively and desperately to be Great and powerful?

B: It’s all about the non-congenital, and God knows how, when and where acquired funny sense of supremacy that resides in every single cell of the whole Being. It kicked in at a certain moment at the very tip of Its tail which then wagged the whole Being, so much so that the Being’s head was shaken totally out of Its already ever funny mind.

A: How could taking on the kingless Middle Kingdom translate into being Great and powerful?

B: Really not the least relevant, and it’s absurd, right? But this is how, simply in the extremely shortsighted eyes and faint heart of this Tehlaanpuh Being the kingless Middle Kingdom is so great and so powerful, even for the time being as just a developing mass of land, that this Tee Being cannot deny. Yet at the same moment, being driven subconsciously by Its sense of supremacy, It simply has no other options but to deny altogether what Its eyes actually see! So It declared war to make it clear that the kingless Middle Kingdom doesn’t mean much of a thing before Its supremacy. The Middle Kingdom WAS already great in Its previous hypocritical rhetoric, so, It, which now dared to take on such a great kingless Kingdom, as It assumed others dared not, must be greater still, and could even be the greatest of all time.

A: Does it mean that, at a certain time when It was sincere to Its heart, say, not in the state of mental high, this Tee Being was not feeling comfortable about the greatness and power of the kingless Middle Kingdom?

B: Not only feeling uncomfortable, but simply scared to the core of Its ego infiltrated with supremacy, obviously.

A: How so? Many a being takes flight instead of fight when frightened.

B: Well, reckless and arrogant heroes don’t. In the old days, many a stupid being in the kingless Middle Kingdom yells into the thin air or sings broken songs of no key and no words when walking in the dark. Stupid beings are always afraid of something they imagine and would then whistle at nothing to embolden their guts.

A: But this proudest Tehlaanpuh Being is certainly not stupid. And besides, Its supremacy is very unlikely to let It copy this stupid behavior of the stupid beings of the kingless Kingdom.

B: Who knows! This Tee Being could have learned something foolish, like subconsciously, from Its lovely little grandchild who knows things old and new, good and bad about the kingless ancient Middle Kingdom. Besides, such silly behavior actually exists universally in all civilizations, so, no need to copy.
