15. Lonesome Rhodes described these people perfectly

Actor on Rhodes' show: [Speaking about Senator Fuller] You really sell that stiff as a man among men?

Lonesome Rhodes: Those morons out there? Shucks, I could take chicken fertilizer and sell it to them as caviar. I could make them eat dog food and think it was steak. Sure, I got 'em like this... You know what the public's like? A cage of Guinea Pigs.

Good Night you stupid idiots. Good Night, you miserable slobs. They're a lot of trained seals. I toss them a dead fish and they'll flap their flippers.


These people have been with us always, as have the grifters who take advantage of them. If "Lonesome Rhodes" was with us today, he'd be selling them crypto coins.
