> This is Idiocracy the movie IRL.

The difference being that in the movie Idiocracy the President didn't assume he knew everything and was willing to listen to people who knew more than him.

Putting a UFC fighting cage on the lawn of the White House was another acceleration in that direction I didn’t imagine I’d live to see.

I always felt that film was lazy in how it presents its premise.

Maybe there's naunces I'm missing because I'm not American, but it made me feel a bit gross in the same way a lot of pop culture around 'chavs' in the UK made me feel a bit gross. I don't think always refraining from punching down is a good rule in comedy, but I struggle to find much comedy in things which are nothing but punching down.

No, I'd much rather have Idiocracy than the orange buffoon we actually have in office.

In the meantime, might I interest you in some protein water?
