Everyone thinks they're geniuses in America. No matter how stupid you may really be, your opinion counts just as much as everyone else's. In fact it counts more. Doesn't matter if you don't have a PhD. Don't need to listen to fancy smart people. You've read on Facebook just what the truth is. Climate change? Hoax! Epidemic-shmepidemic! Anything bad about Donald Trump? Made up by the biased media. Don't try to lay no fancy edumacation on me. Here in reality show America, it's all about the presentation. Substance is over rated. Give me a vice-presidential candidate in a fuzzy bear suit any day. And of course, anyone who can body slam Vince McMahon is my choice for presidentin'. Pardon me while I stock up on toilet paper and gargle with Purell. I've got to get home in time for the next "Masked Singer" since there's no sports on T.V. And you wonder how we got where we are today....

2. That Is Actually Some Insight Into....

Trump's appeal. He tells his supporters that they are just as smart as any expert. It's the way he conducts his own affairs. He believes it of himself. Somehow acknowledging that there are people smarter than you, even if it's on just one subject, is an abdication of power. Think about it-reality T.V. makes every ordinary schmoe a star-no actual talent necessary. That's Trump's genius.
