If you're so rich, why aren't you smart?

Now that everyone's on the Intarwebs and can check alleged facts instantly, one would like to think that there is a level of transparent nonsense that even the meanest intellects will not fall beneath. But no. Donald tRump, whose combover may be the greatest feat of cosmetic engineering since Jane Russell's brassiere, tweeted that President Obama issued a proclamation celebrating Kwanzaa (which he misspelled) but not one for Christmas.
The thought that a president, with a staff to look out for such things, would make such a transparent publicity blunder, even if it did represent his deepest hidden desires, is ludicrous, and of course one could easily find Obama's Christmas proclamation, which he makes every year, as every president does. He also made a similar proclamation about Kwanzaa, as every president does. George W. Bush celebrated Kwanzaa (and Eid, for that matter) but somehow was not accused of being a Kenyan Muslim.
