This is my entry for the Daily Freewrite Challenge hosted by 
Check out the prompt post even if you do not want to participate. It is filled with all kinds of helpful tips and links.
I am very sure that you are misunderstanding me right now. The daily prompt is 'idiot' and I'm posting a picture of the American president. If you are putting these two together you may think that I am making a statement regarding this president guy, but I am not.
When I saw the prompt, I immediately thought of two kinds of people that I would call idiots often enough to remember it. The one kind is irresponsible drivers. Maybe we have this in common but I get very upset when people drive selfishly or irresponsibly. I am not in the habit of showing them my hands, clenched or emphasizing specific fingers. It seems to be a very powerless way of expressing myself. But I will think or say the word 'idiot' when upset in this way.
The other kind is politicians. I have never called anyone an 'idiot' to their face but that is more for a lack of opportunity than as a result of cowardice. The reality is that I have called most of my country's politicians idiots as I listened to their speeches or heard what they did or said. Politics seem to be a particularly attractive career choice for those born with the 'idiot' gene. Or at least that is the case in my country.
When I saw the prompt I immediately did a search for a picture to accompany the post. And guess what! The pic above popped up in the search. I found this funny and searched a couple of other sites too. It seems this American politician is often considered a visualisation of today's prompt. And that is not just in my country that we vote for idiots.
If you are a fan of the man in the pic, I apologize. I do not know his politics well enough to have a considered opinion on how well he illustrates today's prompt.
