I love "The Stand" as well. I like to say: "I he should die before I wake, I hope to God the news ain't fake."
I've so had it with his fake pomposity rooted in abysmal insecurity. Look at the ease the real one can feel in his skin because he's is just that.

....his smile looks, at best, like a used car salesman, and at worst like a grimace.

is such that he literally cannot genuinely smile. A smile would mean that for a tiny amount of time his mind steps away from them. He is a very sick man.

That smile that he gave to Putin was creepy as hell.

He also does the Shkrelli smirk. Not a good look.

He was delighted at the big trophy.

And I saw another smile recently.

But most of the time the gathering storm in his face is a trigger warning for those of us who have lived with an abuser. A knot in the stomach, and fear of what's ahead.

But he doesn't. He is completely devoid of anything even remotely resembling a sense of humor.
