Go Ahead, Be President!

Apparently knowing a damn thing about how to run the world matters not a whit anymore. All you need is a good personality and a better sense of humor, which by the way is how Trump got elected. (The haters can't see it but the man is pretty funny.)


Next up: Big-personality Stacie Abrams is toying with joining the motley crew of Democrats hoping for a chance to have their own airplane for eight years. Although she lost the election for Georgia's governor, she has since loomed large on the national stage. One thing in her favor is that she is a POC, which these days is a whole lot more bankable than being a POS. Eager to get started on her pet projects (Medicaid expansion, election reform and abortion rights), Abrams is pretty sure that "change is coming" and that it's already arrived, at least in Georgia. (I hope fixing that gap between her front teeth is one of the changes.)
It's happening all over, not just here. Popular Ukrainian TV comic Volodymr Zelensky has catapulted to the top of the presidential race in that country. Nobody knows what he stands for, what he would do if elected or who's behind him, but despite his lack of any political experience he received twice as many votes as the incumbent in a first round of voting.

So if you're hankering to be treated like royalty, hate carrying a wallet, yearn for bodyguards 24/7, want lots of fun stuff to do without having to make any plans yourself, enjoy eating well but hate cooking and love foreign travel, go for it. Apparently nobody will try to stop you.
