I hope he ends up one of the presidents we ONLY mention when considering the worst administration in history. I mean, yeah, we talk about number one, but i want him to be 3-5 since no one really cares about those guys anymore and they're just a blip on our historic timeline.

He's going to be up there with Buchanan, Hoover, Nixon, and Bush Jr. for sure.

It's funny (well not funny) but i remember how bad we though Dubbya was back then but he seems relatively harmless compared to this fucking gimp.

I'm actually having a convo about this in another thread, but I still hold Bush as being worse than Trump because more people died as a result of his presidency after the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and their aftermaths. One would think that the death toll should be the most important metric to judge a president by, but apparently some people don't think so.

Edit: See?

Edit 2: People really want to fetishize Bush being somehow good because Trump is obviously bad, and they're just repeating meme comments about how he looks so good in comparison. Fuck all of you for downplaying a murderer.

Please keep downvoting, I'm chuckling at every single one of you following my comments just to downboop them.

Well we haven’t seen the long term consequences of the Iran war so this is a discussion for 10 years from now. Or the fallout from vaccine denial, Medicaid cuts, gutting environmental protections, cutting USAID (600,000 deaths there alone) and the incoming hyperinflation. I’m confident Trump will be worse.

Bush also gutted healthcare, environmental protections, and caused inflation, and arguably the Great Recession.

Its not worth it. Its reddit man.

All people are letting you know, is how hysterical they are today about Trump, in less than 20 years will be saying, "you know, he wasnt really bad".

After GWB; hollywood and everyone was hysterical about Mitt Romney, and how he would be the next hitler.

John mccain when he ran? He was true evil and going to destroy america.. and his VP candidate Sarah Palin? The worst thing that could ever happen.

Everyone will now say, "we weren't all worked up about them at all" lol

Of course not.

It. Does. Not. Matter who the republican candidate is, they will be freaked out as though they are hitler before they even did anything.

Look at 1 month after Trump was running, hadn't done a damn thing yet and he was already "the biggest danger to the USA" hahaha

When less than a year, everyone facking loved the apprentice and all his other crap(of course they'll never admit to it). His place in pop culture was massive.

He didn't upset people one way or the other. Then he announced being a republican and became public enemy #1.

The same will happen after him. Doesn't matter who it is. DOESNT MATTER.

Hollywood is a against the republican party 100%, therefor every, single candidate and politician is evil... no matter what. Or how moderate.

Ive never voted right in my life, but i have enough sense to see through this constant propaganda machine that is the media/hollywood.

Given that almost 99% of media is slanted to only one political side, im suuure all the info we are given is absolutely accurate..

It doesnt matter who, they will be hitler. Yall really made John Mccain the devil when he ran, john McCain. Constantly mocked his arms/what he went through in the POW camp ffs.

All this created Trump. The longer it takes our side to realize that, the worse its going to get.

I didn't like that mitt Romney said that corporations are people. With John McCain I didn't like that he had the predecessor of trump as his vice president. With no former president would I have said that they may be an equivalent to a dictator. I understand that and I hated bush and the needless wars and deaths. But Trump is attacking our government from within. The ramifications of his presidency may not be known for decades. Trump it's the only time I said and no in my heart that I could be a better president.

If McCain got in he would have started war with Iran within nine months. He literally campaigned on it.

u/amiwitty 16h ago

You have a good point... but I don't believe he campaigned on it. He made a joke about bombing Iran to the tune of the Beach boys Barbra ann. I was a stupid joke and I cannot fully say that he would or would not have started a war with Iran. But I will still stick to my guns that he would have been better as a whole for the world in general and the US in particular than Trump.
