A plane with five passengers on board — Donald Trump, Boris Johnson, Angela Merkel, the Pope and a 10-year-old schoolgirl — is about to crash and there are only 4 parachutes.
Trump says: “I need one. I’m the smartest man in the USA and I’m needed to solve the pandemic!” He takes one parachute and jumps.
Johnson says: “I’m needed to sort out the COVID-19 mess in Britain.” He takes one and jumps.
The Pope says: “The world’s Catholics depend on me for comfort in a time of fear.” He takes one and jumps.
“You can have the last parachute,” Merkel says to the 10-year-old. “I’ve lived my life. Yours is only just starting.”
The little girl replies: “Don’t worry, there are two parachutes left. The smartest man in the USA just took my school bag.”
