It is easy to describe the current American president and his presidency as unprecedented in a number of negative ways. His version of a special 4th of July this weekend can be seen as more glaring evidence of that.

But consider another radical possibility.

What if this president is actually a supreme political performance artist? What if his presidency is a groundbreaking art project, rather than simply a reflection of his own infirmities for the office?

Proposed here is the possibility that he is just such an artist, a surrealist. In his own terms, the greatest artist ever in history.

Could it be?
