Then again, I've got enough sense to know that the Presidency isn't a position that should be held by "regular folk"; I wouldn't expect a candidate to conduct him/herself in such a manner just because it makes it easier for average dudes and random dumb asses to imagine themselves at the helm.![]()
Mr. Trump's simply demonstrated that he can appeal to the lowest common denominator.
How difficult is that, really?
Nobody can complain about regular folk, average dudes or random dumb asses attaining high office if regular folk, average dudes and random dumb asses are given the power to seat the candidate.
I used to be more optimistic about our collective intelligence, but the fact that my reasonable choices for President are Clinton and Trump only exposes my naivity on the matter. Carlin was right. I would like to vote for Johnson, but what's the fucking point? I think I'll sit this one out.
