dude was a comedian on a show about a regular citizen who became an overnight sensation for a social media video criticizing corruption in the government. he went on a meteoric rise to becoming the president.

then he ran a real life presidential campaign that many believe was a initially a promotional stunt (he named his party the same title as the show).

and he caught fire and actually won lol.

now dude is one of the most important leaders in the world at a time that could decide the geopolitical direction of much of the world for the next several decades.

its a pretty amazing story (and would be more amazing if he can hold off russia).
