It is astounding how many #resist people's objections to Trump boil down to this

like, the key difference between Trump and Bush, really, is that Twitter wasn't a thing yet when Bush took office

Bush was a useful idiot, troump is genuinely insane and also a horrible oval office.

Bush's lovely policies were somewhat planned out. Trumps smooth brain prevents him from thinking more than 20 minutes into the future.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

His alt text for that comic is: Oh please oh please don't let anyone take this as for or against any position.
So with this one he's hoping people don't assume one way or another(which they will anyway), which is fine for comedy.

I find most of the comics pretty entertaining (there are some misses, but they ain't too bad) and I can't recall any egregiously leaning comics one way or another despite any potential political leanings. I found this one was rather on point for the SUCK ZONE

that's the thing, the only real difference in terms of what those two things mean out of the presidency is "decorum"

When it comes down to it, the only policies that are likely to make it all the way out of Trump's White House through a semi-hostile Congress into federal law are the same ones Dick Cheney would have loved

For all we know Bush was a horrible oval office in private too, he just didn't have a magic button that let him take whatever random-rear end thought he just had and broadcast it to the entire world

No one here is going to argue the Bush administration was anything other than terrible, but I dont think its wrong to say that on the bad presidents scale Bush could be a 7 while Trump is on track to close out on a 9.
10 is reserved for ending America in nuclear Hellfire, which is still a possibility.

Yes, because in terms of actual action hes just another republican president. yes him being an idiot to heads of state is funny, but ultimately meaningless.

Trump is a smooth brained moron Fox News Grampa but he hasn't started something as horrific as the Iraq war. yet.

so while you're probably right that he's on track for a 9, Bush is already there for me.

I admit I haven't looked in this thread for months and I'm a foreigner but at what point did Dems or whoever is posting in this thread swap from "we must not normalise trump" to "trump is normal, maybe even better than normal because he's SO stupid and reckless he can't do anything"?

I don't agree with either position but I do think trump is a uniquely awful president at least in the modern era.
Action wise... He's only been in for 160 odd days lol.

the suck zone might be jim dandy for its regulars but its a throbbing wizard turd to everyone else, hence its low number of regulars compared to any other thread as persistent as it
