“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 heart’s
desire at last and the White House will be occupied by a downright
fool and complete narcissistic moron.”
~H.L. Mencken,
The Baltimore Evening Sun, July 26, 1920
Terrific quote from Mencken!!!
Too true.
You do get the government you deserve. Not us, per se, but the nation as a whole. As the nation’s electorate becomes collectively more ignorant and immoral, you are seeing the result.
