I was listening to the radio version of the The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy yesterday...

"The major problem, one of the major problems, for there are several, one of the *many* major problems with governing people is that of who you get to do it, or rather, of who manages to get people to let them do it to them.

"To summarize, it is a well-known and much-lamented fact that those people who most want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.

"To summarize the summary, anyone who is capable of getting themselves made president should on no account be allowed to do the job. To summarize the summary of the summary, people are a problem."

Douglas Adams was ahead of his time.
(EDIT: Okay, he wasn't, this idea goes back to Plato... But still, has there ever been a more perfect example of this idea than Trump? Oof.)
