Poster child of excess

Donald Trump is the perfect poster child for capitalism run amuck. Everything he says and does shouts excess. The scary thing is his excessive number of supporters who are so blinded by the bling that they don’t see how they are being played.

If Trump becomes president, each of his followers will become the perfect poster child for “seduced and abandoned.” It’s easy to imagine how this boy-child player, once winning the prize, will lose interest, saying: “Well that was fun; what’s next?”
