That my father-in-law, retired and with the mentality of a retrograde caveman does this kind of cringy videos is understandable. Unclassy, bad taste and ridiculous as hell, but understandable given his ignorance.
That a president of an "advanced" country does it... Fuck, I just realized my in-law can be POTUS...
We have been told for many generations that anyone can be the POTUS, he's just lowering the bar to make it true.
The bar has been lowered to air bud
It's pretty generous to call anything Trump has done "dunking" at best he's dribbled all over himself.
And yet he's the president, he can do what he wants and made himself and those around him even richer and more powerful. I'd say it all worked out pretty well for him.
