Trump is Schlemiel. The rest of us are Schlimazel.

[Atman]

Our so-called president is the schlemiel. We're all the schlimazels.

6. A clip from the movie "Independence Day"

I believe it was the first time I'd ever heard the word "schlemiel," or maybe it was the first time it registered. I took the trouble to look it up. Good word!
