Kakistocracy

Trump is showing his true colours more quickly than I suspected.

Here’s the New Yorker’s take on it. I have learned a new word:

The Greeks have a word for the emerging Trump Administration: kakistocracy. The American Heritage Dictionary defines it as a “government by the least qualified or most unprincipled citizens.” Webster’s is simpler: “government by the worst people.”

Or, even easier to memorise: government by the shittiest.
