Deranged Buffoon Elected President
Yahoo report: NEW YORK — Donald J. Trump will be the 45th president of the United States, the Associated Press projected Wednesday. He will be the first person to hold the office despite having no prior political or military experience.
I agree with Yahoo reporters Hunter Walker and Dylan Stableford. I would add that Donald J. Trump will be the first person to hold the office despite having no political or military competence. His multiple bankruptcies and fraudulent schemes (e.g. Trump University) say volumes about his financial and managerial capacity. Additionally, he has zero control over his emotions and that is disturbing for a man with access to nuclear codes. On the positive side he can now forcibly fück any woman who catches his fancy since the President of the United States is immune from arrest.
On the plus side it appears that nuclear engineers will be in hot demand in Japan and South Korea. The Trump victory has resulted in emergency cabinet meetings in those two countries. I wonder what they're talking about 🎆.
Documentary film maker Ken Burns gave a speech where he referenced The Donald:
“There comes a time when I and you can no longer remain neutral, silent — we must speak up and speak out,” said Burns, who is known for historical documentaries. “For 216 years, our elections — though bitterly contested — have featured the philosophies and characters of candidates who were clearly qualified.”“That is not the case this year,” he said, to a round of applause.

During his takedown, Burns made several stinging points without even using the candidate’s name.
“He is an insult to our history,” Burns said. A moment later, he implored: “Do not be deceived by his momentary good behavior. It is only a spoiled, misbehaving child hoping somehow to still have dessert.”
Finally, you may be familiar with the ridiculous saying that goes like this: Democracy is the worst form of government - except when compared to all the others.
"Oh yeah?" I say. Singapore would never allow an idiot like The Donald attain power. They've got a better way.
