"As democracy is perfected, the office of the President, represents more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their hearts desire at last, and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and complete narcissistic moron."

Do you think Trump is a narcissist moron and a fool?

Maybe not, but he plays one on Twitter.

When Barak took over 8 yrs ago it was a cluster, too. Clusters are normal when you peacefully transfer the political power of the free world over to folks that are unaccustomed to the weight. It is OK. fundamentally I have faith in human nature. After all, our biological imperative is to be a successful species.

As if one is superior to the other.

Eugene Debbs was a much more interesting character imo.
