How painfully the history returns.
We need more such comedians and less true dictators.

The world would be a happier place, full of laughter and not as many tears.

THere is the 'Audacity of Hope;'

THere is the Audacity of Fear;

THere is the ReaLiTy of Love;

THere is the ReaLiTy of Hate;

Clue: Find Another Leader

Who is More Interested

in the "Audacity

of Hope"

Than

"The Art of the Deal"...

Yet Of Course Make Sure
That Leader Understands
"The Art of the Deal" too...

Perhaps We Need A Change
In 'The Constitution' for An 'Emergency 3rd Term'...

Where Else Are We Gonna Find A Way to Replace Biden at Least...

Charisma Wins Politics, Either Dark Or Light Most; It'S How 'Dictators' And 'Real

Leaders'
Still Pull
The HeART
Strings of Voting Booths' too..:)

Unfortunate that proved to be just wishful thinking on Chaplin's part.

I remember watching this with Hans Zimmer's Time playing in the background.

It makes the speech sound much more powerful.
