Memesplanation Short 66

This is how the world is. The bigger the fool, the higher the pedestal. The braggart who does accomplish things, blows hard about them, and gets attention for doing so. See: Donald J. Trump. Some of the things he has done have been foolish, others not so much, but he jumps up and down, screaming about how wonderful he is, either way. That is folly. That gets a place of honor here on earth, but the wealthy person who does not brag gets very little attention, so he sits in the low place. Who are you? Are you the blowhard or the humble one who gets no special treatment? This verse is descriptive, not prescriptive. It is not telling us to puff out our chests and brag about our accomplishments or talents, but it does tell us how things tend to work, here on earth.
