Kakistocracy

It's hard to maintain a strong democracy when people elect a kakistocracy. To those who believe in "America First": your government now consists of the worst. The POTUS must be cruel and cockeyed choosing a cabinet of the least-qualified. Only someone vile and obscene would select a Health Secretary who is anti-vaccine. And the Education Secretary must be stunned: she actually refers to AI as "A One"! But then, a man with a history of disorderly conduct would choose sycophants who are cracked and corrupt. The new definition of stupid is accepting those who are unsuited, knowing the truth and seeing it with your own eyes, but still believing the hype and the lies.
