Sort of the Upside of Trump

America has always ridiculed foreign leaders.   Whether they laughed at the name Lamumba, ridiculed Gaddafi,  made spoofs of Idi Amin, or Duterte, they’ve always been able to find fault and flaw and make themselves feel superior.

Now, with the election of Donald Trump, the rest of the world gets to enjoy the pop corn.

Here’s a guy with no manners, no breeding, inarticulate, more of a clown than a leader.

Every time he speaks we have to laugh, he sounds like a whining twelve year old.  He has the vocabulary of a six, and spends his time sending idiotic ‘tweets’  to keep the world informed of his pathetic thought processes.

When people hem and haw and say simplistic things we laugh and respond with; “Hey Trump!”   When we want to sound clueless, we imitate his voice and speech patterns.

Although he has his aspect of scary, because we can easily imagine him dropping nuclear weapons on ISIS bases, and shipping Muslims out of America,  we tend to assume that once he gets into the Oval Office there will be some impediment to his throwing his toys out of the pram.

Although the more sophisticated among us can find fault with our politicians who seem beneath the standards we expect, none descends to the level of Trump.

That he obtained the Republican nomination over other candidates, was extraordinary, but then, we, in the third and fourth world, know about bribing delegates.   Many of us have seen the cult classic, Idiocracy.   Time Magazine even wrote a piece about it as has the Telegraph Newspaper.

The fact is, the Dumbing Down in America has succeeded.  The infantile spoiled brat behaviour which has been encouraged with the lack of toilet training and resulting lack of self control, has triumphed.

America has elected the clown of the class for President.

I can’t criticise much, because we did it in 9th grade.  We elected Glen who was not only a clown but the class Pharmacist (he not only sold drugs but could deal with over doses) as President.

Of course, student government has limits and the Principal could step in and abolish it when it got too crazy.

No one is going to be able to stop Trump.  Sure, some of his stupider and more racist ideas might be held up,  some might not get out of committee, but the world is in for the most ridiculous leader, who’ll make Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho (the President in Idiocracy) seem positively brilliant.
