President Donald Trump was a distracting entertainment from the moment he launched his campaign in June of 2015 — until he wasn’t.

His opening speech, in which he called Mexican immigrants “rapists” and told the world he would be the best jobs president “God ever created,” was looked at as the ravings of a man whose outsized ego was too big to be anything but hilarious.
