      Except President Camacho found the smartest person he could and immediately put him in charge. We’re not even smart enough to be idiocracy.

      In case people forgot, President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho was a porn superstar and, relevantly, five-time Ultimate Smackdown wrestling champion.

        I always see this ‘counter argument’ but referring to Idiocracy is more about comparing the stupidness than the President.

          I’m not making any arguments, I’m pointing out that wrestling specifically was involved in the plot of Idiocracy.

          It doesn’t seem counter at all. Trump is in several Russian porno tapes just ask him, and he was part of WWE multiple times.

          So it works in stupidity and his character traits.
