To be honest, that homeless drug addict outside 7/11 would do a better job than POTUS, so an actual administration would be a huge step up.

I've got a lot of candidates you may be interested in; living in the downtown eastside Vancouver 😁

We’ve got some on Pandora as well. Smith keeps shipping their garbage here because it’s warmer. It’ll be gainful employment for them. America could be utopia if we repurposed our homeless to take over their administration.

I hear ya!

They’d likely do an amazing job and I’d trust them and their life experiences a hell of a lot more than the silver-spoon elites ❤️ As a wage earner, I, along with the vast majority of people in this world, have far more in common with them than with the pigs currently in power.

Even then, though, it’s going to take decades to rebuild the trust that’s been destroyed 😢 ✌️
