Today's Political Thought

In Woody Allen's movie Bananas, there's a scene where the dictator of the South American country San Marcos gives a speech to the masses. In it, he declares that from now on, the official language of San Marcos will be Swedish, everyone is to change their underwear every half-hour and all children under sixteen years old are now sixteen years old. He is so incoherent that even many of his staunch supporters realize that the man is completely out of his mind.

I'm getting the feeling we are only weeks from Donald Trump giving his version of that speech.
