a crafty businessman
racist, communalist, misogynist
who rarely spoke truth
bribed politicians
maligned opponents
…
had few successes
more bankruptcies
not much talent
not much smart
yet he bullshitted his way to the top
leased the biggest store in the world
physical labor he’s exempt from
mental labor he’s exempt from
he has surrounded himself with
millionaires and billionaires
the things he does are:
sign executive orders
create chaos all over the world
threaten other store owners
cut benefits of needy people
…
he has an eight-year plan
to bankrupt the biggest store
but the speed of his orders
indicates he’ll finish the work in four years
then he will retire
with manifold more money
than he has now
you may wonder how’s that possible?
well, the business may go bankrupt
but this businessman will grow richer
because he is “a really smart person”
