Way back when, Nixon nominated Harrold Carswell to the Supreme Court. Famously not too bright or accomplished, Senator Hruska defended the pick by stating:
“Even if he were mediocre, there are a lot of mediocre judges and people and lawyers. They are entitled to a little representation, aren’t they, and a little chance? We can’t have all Brandeises, Frankfurters and Cardozos.”
And so it was with Trump, who truly proved that, indeed, anyone can grow up to be President, something we were all taught as children but came to believe not really possible as we got older. For, as Dear Leader demonstrated, if a not too bright, racist, lying, failed businessman who was also a traitorous serial sexual assaulter, can make it, anyone one of the rest of us can. And for that, we are dubiously in his debt.
