It's all fun and games until Donald Trump becomes President. On Wednesday, Idiocracy cowriter Etan Cohen took to Twitter to basically confirm what we've all been thinking. "I never expected #idiocracy to become a documentary," he wrote, suggesting that, with Donald Trump inching closer to becoming the Republican presidential nominee in this year's elections, the satirical film is hitting a little too close to home.
Now, before you call me stupid for even suggesting Idiocracy is becoming our country's reality, take a moment to consider the values of the film's fictional future: guns, coporate money, sex, and highly offensive language (often used to make fun of people). So yeah, a proud NRA-supporting candidate — who calls people "p*ssies" and "losers," has said, "Part of the beauty of me is that I am very rich," and mentioned that if Ivanka wasn't his daughter he'd be dating her — isn't that far off from Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. Let's examine the evidence, shall we? Welcome to the future if Trump becomes President of the United States.
