I see where you’re going with this and I accept the possibility Trump is just clumsy and avoidant on the issue.

But you must be aware that there is a strong belief amongst MAGA types and deep conservatives in general that slavery was benign if not beneficial to those subjugated. D’Souza wrote a whole book about it.

They believe liberals exaggerate the bad parts of slavery due to irrational white guilt and black people agree because they are whiners and want reparations.

I strongly suspect this plays into Trump’s rants regarding museums and history curricula.

Maybe I missed something but nowhere in this discussion do you mention whether you want to sleep with him? Even when people sort of prompted you.

If you fancy him, take it to the next level. I imagine he’s keeping it light for plausible deniability in case nothing happens or he gets rejected.

Either make a move or tell him you’re not interested in a relationship. Figure out your own intentions instead of trying to mindread him.

Qobuz also has some of the highest royalty payments for artists.

I would argue talent isn’t even in the top ten list of important qualities for “success” in the music world.
