He'd probably criticize him for his demagoguery, but also point out that the American people are so utterly disenfranchised by the social order that they will spring at any hope for 'salvation' that comes their way. He'd also discuss the American mentality of needing to 'win', and how it is not only tied to this sense of disenfranchisement, but also to the individualistic mindset prevalent in modern society.

He would recognize things he hates about himself in Trump's campaign and kill himself.
He would write some lenghty essay on the maladies of american society to score ego points and sleep with his female students and then secretly vote for him.
>Wallace struggled with drug and alcohol addiction, depression, suicide attempts, institutionalization, and at times inappropriate sexual behavior. Wallace is reported to have slept with some of his female students while teaching at university and sometimes exhibited stalking-like obsessive behavior when enamored of a woman.
>Born to atheist parents, Wallace attempted to join the Catholic Church twice but "flunk[ed] the period of inquiry," and later attended a Mennonite church.

I think, given my own experience in RCIA, he probably more or less "fell away." I might be wrong though. There's definitely criteria you should meet to be baptised, but it's mostly about attending.

this essay kinda felt like him to me.
What book is he holding?
>tfw we will never a dfw short story collection centered around boredom and loneliness and irony in the internet era; with stories about memes, and livestreamed suicides, and repressed nerds living out their weird sexual fantasies under the mask of cosplaying video game-characters at conventions

Sounds like Brief Interviews with Hideous Men II: Millennial Boogaloo
He would make a really elaborate and obvious critique of Trump's campaign and go little further because he still doesn't want to admit he is a conservative and while he would probably not vote for Trump specifically, probably would like a lot of his policies and have his eyes on someone like Ben Carson if not Hillary.
He would say that there's no capital-T Trump.
depends what era Wallace. He had pretty socialist views at one point but he also apparently voted for republican

He'd hedge. Like he did about anything that might be divisive. Fucking lowercase p pansy.
yeah, that reads scarily like dfw
I don't know, but he'd probably get right to heart of the "sad and complicated truth" or something.
