HOUSTON : THE MORON HAS LANDED ON PLANET EARTH

 Democracy  and   H. L. Mencken
Trump steps from Leer  Jet  with short back and sides .
 
Of his many pronouncements on  democracy , American  journalist, satirist , cultural critic  and scholar of American English , Henry Louis   Mencken (1880-1956), one   rings  true  today  : " As democracy is perfected, the office of president  represents , more and more closely, the inner soul of the people.  On some  great and  glorious day the  plain  folks  of the land will reach their  heart's desire  at  last and  the White House will  be  adorned  by  a  downright moron."
