“Given the country’s apparent willingness to tolerate monumental lies, corruption, the abuse of power, and general malfeasance, I’m not ruling out anything anymore. It seems the more unsuitable one is for holding high office, the greater the chance of being elected.”
The truth; the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
Eventually, when the SHTF, the country will be desperate to find good leaders to get out of the mess we’ve created. It will be interesting to watch the mad scramble to find someone who is actually qualified, competent and willing to take on the monumental task. Then, just like with Winston Churchill, the country will promptly dump the person after the crisis passes and go back back to electing clowns for high office.
