Trump's idiocracy: we have already seen example of broken system
When Americans cosplay Ukraine, it becomes a little scary, and you want to ask where this bloody world is going
The fact that Ukrainians elected a comedian as president and wedding photographers and supermarket beer thieves as members of parliament has not made Trump's appointments any better for Ukraine, the world, or America itself.
It seems that democracy is no longer working in the modern world, as democratically elected leaders are turning into dictators all over the world.
And while we can understand such transformations in Belarus, Russia, and Turkey, Trump's idiocracy in the United States makes half the world worry about tomorrow.
Trump's supporters claim that we don't understand anything, but in fact, these guys will break the system and everything will be better. But we have already seen an example of a broken system. Instead of Kolomoisky, Akhmetov, Pinchuk, who used to decide everything, now Yermak, Tatarov, Arakhamia are making decisions in Ukraine. I cannot say that these three are better than their predecessors.
And if anyone has any illusions that things will be different in America, unfortunately, they won't be. There will be a lot of slogans, a lot of big words. There will be some campaigns, offices of simple solutions, and a billion trees.
But it will all come down to one thing: morons will entertain morons to get re-elected.
