I’m reading “A stable genius” which just come out. The stupidity of Trump when laid out from end to end is something else.
The fact that we have a system that allows a total buffoon like Trump to be in the White House is an indictment on the whole country.
At some point you have to blame people rather than the system though. 62 million people voted for Trump in 2016 and around the same number will still vote for him again this year if not more. Even the most well-designed system in the world won't work if the people using it are stupid, corrupt, or malevolent. Ultimately Trump and the Republicans are in office because of voters.
