You can tell an awful lot about a person by the archetype they represent.

Hussein tried to be the highly esteemed professor, but we know he was really just the corrupt career criminal.

What archetype does @realDonaldTrump represent?

Dad.

To the point that many of us in-

#Cult45 have take to calling him dad, part joking but most out of love and respect.

Those of us who have good and loving relationships with our fathers understand why.

What is a good dad?

Loving, but he knows when tough love is called for

He has rules, and expects them to-

be followed, even when extremely difficult (hence following the rule of Federalism in the midst of a pandemic)

Always setting things up for a better future, even if it means putting off some comforts now.

Willing to take arrows in his back to protect those whom he loves

A -

sense of humor that may make other people clutch their pearls but makes his family crack up every time

A distinct papa bear mentality when the wolves come anywhere near his Cubs

A sense of loyalty that goes much deeper than any friend could ever have

Deep fiscal responsibility

because dad knows the bill will come due somewhere down the road

A certain glint in the eye that let's the family know exactly what comes next

And of course, the penchant to teach life lessons through actions.

I know there are more - add your examples below 👇🏼
