    Obama had charisma and was a great speaker,

    And as we’re seeing now with Biden’s poll numbers, unfortunately, that’s all that matters. Doesn’t matter how many good things you do to help people, all that matters is whether you have charisma and a good media relations team.

    People are so stupid. Maybe democracy was a mistake.

      Maybe democracy was a mistake.

      It probably works fine if the majority of your population doesn’t have either CTE from your sports programs, lead poisoning, or something above an 8th grade education.
