Master Your Craft.
Last week, Guatamala elected Jimmy Morales to be its next president. He's a comedian with zero political experience and no real policy platform, who has oft been called “Guatamala's Stephen Colbert.”
No political experience and no real policy platform, hmm, where have we heard that before? So maybe the idea that America, as a country, is dumb enough to actually elect Donald Trump to be its president isn't that farfetched. Morales was only polling at 1 percent in recent months, as opposed to the commanding lead Trump seems to have over his right-wing adversaries.
Is that our future? Who knows what'll happen a year from now? Not us, though we do have the next seven days mapped out pretty well.
