It seems quite apparent that Americans haven’t yet become immune to the cult of smarm and insincerity. So gullible and naive and still falling for it every time they so badly want it to be true.
But the Obamas, Mamdanis and El-Sayeds they’re all the same people and were picked for the very same, central casting reason. It’s the same schtick. Engaging smile, affable and charming.
All snake-hipped, suave, designer stuble, articulate and seemingly unflappable with a believable pitch, patter and delivery while projecting a totally fake sense of decency and goodness.
Always ready with the quick and snappy comeback line or putdown. Always answering a question that wasn’t asked.
And all with the same or similar exotic backstories.
All wearing their equally hip, cool and trendy colored, woven friendship bracelets or pretentious, colourful sacred threads.
Come on America, wake up. Stop being so incuriously dumb. You’re being played.
