From my friend Larisa Alexandrovna Horton on FB...

Oh the irony. African "shithole countries" like South Africa produced a leader like Nelson Mandala. The US produced a leader like Trump. South Africa produced a person of character such as Desmond Tutu. America produced a greedy bastard like Dick Cheney. Ethiopia gave us Dr. Kitaw Ejigu, so that people like Donnie Jr. can find their way home when they get lost killing elephants. If Trump actually knew how to read, he might have read Nigerian writer Chinua Achebe. But the POTUS can't read. So take that Nigerians, lol.
But let's put aside the obvious racism here. I don't think Trump even knows that there are actual white people living in or emigrating from African countries, people Trump actually knows personally. Elon Musk is South African.
My suggestion: For every Trump voter, we get a person from one of the African nations to help stave off the creeping idiocracy.
