Lol. I love that gif.
You know, I live in a 3rd world country so I sort of expect the candidates for presidency to be corrupt, incompetent liars.
But then I see the same thing in MANY 1st world countries. The above Bojo is an example.

After wondering "WTF ?!?" For a long time I have reached a tentative conclusion. Dudes like Bojo are manipulated into power by people who hold the real power behind the scenes. In return they must do what makes those kingmakers even more money.
The man on the street is becoming more irrelevant except when he/she needs to be lied to at voting time.

@Wraithorn it’s true. Mysteriously funded lobby groups get people like Johnson into power, but Johnson will powerless without keeping the money happy. Or they’ll flip over, demonise him and endorse their next stooge
