President Trump's genius — for modeling the Ugly American — deserves respect of some kind

Irrepressibly "ugly American"

 

Secretary of State Tillerson went to North Korea to negotiate a way to reduce the likelihood of inadvertent World War III. His Commander in Chief helpfully tweeted:

 

 

I told Rex Tillerson, our wonderful Secretary of State, that he is wasting his time trying to negotiate with Little Rocket Man...

 

...Save your energy Rex, we'll do what has to be done!

 

 

With "brown" colony Puerto Rico hovering on the brink of hurricane extinction, Magnificent Donald said:

 

 

Such poor leadership ability by the Mayor of San Juan, and others in Puerto Rico, who are not able to get their workers to help.

 

They want everything to be done for them when it should be a community effort. 10,000 Federal workers now on Island doing a fantastic job.

 

 

And adroitly missing Colin Kaepernick's point about murderously racist America, the Incomparable Orange Moralist added:

 

 

Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now, out, he's fired. He's fired.

 

 

And so on

 

Effortlessly. Day after day for virtually the entirety of his less than one year in office.

 

 

The moral? — President Trump is a stratospherically gifted genius

 

Continually bringing out the worst in himself and others, I have developed a cynically fond respect for his extraordinary ability.

 

Spiritually ugly, proud and unapologetic — President Trump is a quintessentially adept symbol of the United States' now predominant dark side.

 

An embodied metaphor of such unequalled caliber must be lauded. Don't you think?
