There's A Stupid Trend In American Politics Right Now With People Who Have No Experience With Politics And No Grasp Of Public Service As A Profession Just Deciding That They're Going To Jump Into It. The Obvious Figurehead Of This Whole "i Am An Idiot, Therefore I Can Be A Politician" Is Donald Trump. People Think That Ignorance Of A Profession Is Somehow Qualifying For That Profession.

In Terms Of Other People's Perception Of Me, That's Their Business. There Are People Who I Have Never Met But, For Whatever Reason, I Am Certain That These People Are Jack-offs. I've Never Met Billy Joel, But I'm Absolutely Convinced He's An Asshole. I Can't Justify That Opinion, That's Just What I Think. But My Opinion About Billy Joel Isn't Going To Affect Him In The Slightest. In The Same Way, I Am Sure There Are People Out There Who Are Completely Convinced That I Am An Asshole, For Whatever Reason. They Might Even Feel More Justified Than I Feel About My Presumptive Opinion Of Billy Joel.
