masks for the rest of our lives despite mortality rates below the murder rate in Chicago? What would he do to "address" this Russian noise? How would he address demands to defund police? How would he handle China's control of Hong Kong? He's great at identifying issues pulled from the headlines....where are his solutions?
Biden would be advised to stay in his basement. As long as he stays there, Trump is running against a perception, not a candiate. Trump cannot beat him. If Biden comes out, and debates, then anything can happen...not in Biden's interest.
If he has no one else to destroy, he will destroy himself. The second Biden comes out of the bunker, Trump has a chance.
Something similar but different: those who excel in the chaos of combat?
Successful combatants...cool under fire, rising to the occasion and excelling in chaos...and then coming home and trying to tolerate doing the orderly and mundane, day after day, wondering why people do it, and struggling to do it all...looking for another deployment to find meaning and purpose in their life.
I don't know if that is antifragile (I haven't read the book). Probably not. Perhaps it is an analog, and not a subset of antifragility. I've always looked at it like this: they have moral clarity and unambiguous purpose and sense of mission in combat...something they have a hard time finding running spreadsheet reports every month, and dropping off their clothes at the cleaners every week.
Trump seems to look for disorder in his daily life to find his purpose, though.
3 types of people:
Fragile - crumble in the face of adversity
Resilient - adversity doesn't affect them
Anti-fragile - adversity makes them stronger
I'm not saying you are wrong.
