Great movie-Amadeus

One of the themes of the film is about mediocrity,

Has there been such a mediocre person as President.

In the movie, Salieri considers himself the patron saint of mediocrity.

I would not necessarily say that of Trump, who is no saint but mediocre, yes.

You are right. Not just mediocre.

From Shakespeare:

PORTIA
When
he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he
is worst he is little better than a beast.
--Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice 1. 2. 82-84
