Making America Whiter

Donald Trump's ability to think is somewhat truncated, but that isn't what makes him an international topic of discussion. It's his heroic attempt to make America whiter.

The attempt began when he discovered that President Obama--only half white--was not a citizen and so not eligible to be President. It continued with Trump calling to our attention that the Chinese are a menace. Few Chinese are white. Then he vowed to build a wall to keep out Mexicans, many of whom are part Apache and don't belong in North America. Now he intends to exclude the Muslims, who come from India or Pakistan or the Semitic regions of the Middle East (50 shades of brown). 

In a democracy,  nearly 50% of the voters will be below average in intelligence. Near the bottom of that scale you find those capable of absorbing only a rudimentary education. But most of them can see through Trump. A few million support him. That's all it takes to make a splash.
