Thomas Paine EXACTLY described Trump 244 years ago. [View all]

The insight of Americas forefathers never ceases to amaze me. (despite their faults):

“Men who look upon themselves born to reign, and others to obey, soon grow insolent; selected from the rest of mankind their minds are early poisoned by importance; and the world they act in differs so materially from the world at large, that they have but little opportunity of knowing its true interests, and when they succeed to the government are frequently the most ignorant and unfit of any throughout the dominions.”
― Thomas Paine, Common Sense

"When they succeed to the government are frequently the most IGNORANT and UNFIT of any...."

I couldn't have expressed it better myself.
