American "culture" abounds with false idols and super heroes (Hollywood can't seem to stop producing the garbage). All of which reinforce the ridiculous and extremely dangerous notion of exceptionalism. All of which emphasize the imbecilic notion that the individual is capable of more and better results than the collective. All of which try to convince people that some Randian superman is going to "Make America Great Again".
I find it fitting that Trump has come to represent the modern-day Galt: a pathological liar, weak, stupid, incapable of lifting a pen let alone a brick, disgusting both physically, emotionally and spiritually. The buffoon he always was, in fact. The antithesis, if ever there was, of the concept of greatness. This is what centuries of shallow comic book culture hath wrought.

Thank goodness for Jazz. grin
