From Lincoln to a FatOrange Clown. Who woulda thunk it?
Thomas Jefferson is credited with saying “The government you elect is government you deserve.’’
There is a similar and well-documented quotation by Joseph de Maistre: “Every country has the government it deserves” written on 15 August 1811.
H.L. Mencken, who said the same thing, but better: “People deserve the government they get, and they deserve to get it good and hard.”
