People elected a moron because they don't bother to learn about the world….
That is a popular view and only partly true. In my opinion, the single greatest cancer on US today is our Congress. Their ability to face up to the existential threats facing us is zero. They rubber stamped the War Resolution mainly based on political survivability. They vote on every War appropriation based on which way the winds are blowing. They find time to hold Hearings on Baseball players alleged drug use when we are sinking into national bankruptcy. We have a Congress fit for a banana republic when the problems are those of a superpower.
