I have been too busy to follow this as a news story. All I know is the cartoons I see and the mocking I hear. Evidently the POTUS went south and did the tango. It is a free country, but he wasn’t in this country. He is entitled to dance the tango if he wants but he needs to come to grips with the understanding that he is representing the United States of America not doing cameo appearances to advertise MTV.
In a way I can understand. I do the same type of thing at school. I put on moves like the students. I wiggle my head when I talk. I walk like my pants are about to fall off. I gesture and bob. I look like a fool. I know it. I am not the next Fred Astaire or Michael Jackson. That is the idea. It is a part of humor. It is self-deprecation for a laugh. It helps me relate to the students who are too young to have a life.
The world is not watching. If it was I would show some dignity. I know when I look like a fool.
That makes me one up on the president.
