If you want a real and very current example of how politicians are literally empty suits who only pretend to be smart, one need only look at yesterdays conduct of British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak . . .
Rishi Sunak, to thunderous applause turning into a standing ovation, proudly announced that the UK would no longer depend on Russian energy and, with camera flashes, signed a contract with a French energy company . . . . . . that imports its Liquified National Gas (LNG) from . . . . . . . . .Russia.
Is Rishi Sunak just stupid? Or does he just think everyone is?
My bet: He thinks everyone else is.
From my perspective, what these nitwit "Leaders" are doing, shows their total disdain for the public they serve. Not just in the UK, but here in the US as well.
Something's gotta give. This can't go on.
