Donald Trump Represents The Perfection Of Democracy

Donald Trump Represents The Perfection Of Democracy | “As democracy is perfected,
the office of 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 adorned by a downright moron.”
H.L. Mencken
