So many people don't understand what's going on here. What was important is that Trump was able to pick up a fry basket and dump it, and he didn't look like he'd just landed from Mars.
He was SLOW, he looked like he did not train the process absolutely at all. But he was able to complete the task and pay some small tribute to the skill of manual labor.
An attribute of a LEADER is that he is capable of doing every thing that he asks someone else to do. In the distant past, leaders were expected to demonstrate exemplary bravery, valor, and command of a horse, and most of them rose from the ranks of the warrior class.
There is very little expected of today's patricians (I refuse to call them leaders) at all, they show up (often drunk), read a teleprompter, and leave. They have begun to scuttle away from even such small demonstrations of skill as answering adversarial questions.
The bar has fallen so low that one wonders if the modern patrician class is able to even wipe their own ass. Putting cheese on a frozen burger is an excellent way to tell the world you don't cook your own meals - and are in fact INCAPABLE of doing so.
In an enlightened country, we ought to be lead by those people with the greatest courage, strength, intelligence, and wisdom. But barring that, we should AT LEAST demand leaders who are capable of performing a minimum wage job at McDonalds.
