“The ritual subordination of one man to another — kneeling before the king, kissing the godfather’s ring, whatever — is a big deal in Trump’s world, and it is one of many expressions of the weird homoerotic character of Trumpist rhetoric and propaganda, from its depictions of the president as an oiled-up bodybuilder to its invocation of tropes from a subspecies of homosexual pornography. It is not about public policy: It is about public men’s self-conception of themselves as men. … Justice Barrett, who seems for all the world to be a psychologically normal, highly intelligent woman in her early 50s, apparently does not feel the kind of self-abasing compulsion that Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio do, that Mike Davis celebrates. She has the soul of a citizen, not the soul of a subject.” (03/10/25)
