George W. Bush vs. Donald Trump

[Sirius_]

It honestly shocks me that there are left leaners that still think Bush is worse the Trump.

[Sirius_]

Moderates and leftists who say Bush is worse, do you still stand by that?

I guess the psychopath/murderer/war criminal who killed fewer people is 'better' than the psychopath/murderer/war criminal who killed far more people, but both are scum? Not that difficult?

350,000 is a lot of people.

This comment shows a tremendous amount of ignorance/callousness toward the lives of innocent non-Americans (both international COVID victims whose deaths couldn't really be attributed to Trump and civilians killed by America's wars).

You know that the US has considerably more deaths than its peers in the developed world and you know that Trump has bungled this and resulted in many preventable deaths. I'm sure you're aware of that. Honestly the amount of mental gymnastics that is being done to declare Bush a worse president than Trump is absurd. We have been brought closer to the brink of the collapse of the republic since the civil war by him. He has blood on his hands and the rest of his body. He destroys international relations and makes America a joke. You are seeing an unprecedented failure of a president who is actively trying to subvert democracy and the founding principals of the United States like no other president ever has. The Iraq war was bad. But what did Bush that resembles all of this?
