Remember when we thought George W Bush was bad?

[BainsBane]

I only wish that was the worst we had to worry about.

[HughBeaumont]

1. George Dubya was STILL bad.

If it wasn't for SarUH Palin, we would have likely had McCain and never recovered.

Of course, if it wasn't for SarUH Palin rolling her snowball down Mount Hatred, the current occupant would be a mere asterisk.

[BainsBane]

2. Trump is so much worse

He makes W look like Thomas Jefferson in comparison.

[HughBeaumont]

6. Yep. He makes W look like George McGovern.

America DID fuck up THIS BADLY. Trump voters and non-voters fractured this country and woke a sleeping giant.

"An empire toppled by its enemies can rise again. But one which crumbles from within? That's dead. Forever." - Helmut Zemo, from Captain America: Civil War

3. I still think he was bad.

tRump may be worse, but will never excuse the things GWB did.

[herding cats]

4. Republicans sure know how to pick 'em, don't they?

When their current choice for president makes you nostalgic for G.W. Bush, it puts it all in perspective.

[HughBeaumont]

7. Makes you shudder to think who's the next Christo-Fascist they got lined up.

Each of their Recessions are worse than the predecessor.

Seems since GHWB, each of their presidents are also.

5. He was trillions bad

And also wanted to detroy Soc Sec - let Wall St have at it.

Now that was a bullet we dodged at a great price

[BainsBane]

8. But Trump is worse

Its not just ideology but his psychological instability than make him such a danger to national security and the world. He's managed to alienate two of America's closest allies in just a few days.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

9. ...............

(BTW, He's still bad, but now Trump is....more badder.)

This is now considered comparably dignified Presidential behavior:

[DemocratSinceBirth]

11. Those images make him look like a sympathetic figure.

[Orsino]

10. He was horrific.

And I'd trade for him in a second.

The GOP 2016 Klown Kar Klub also made him look good. I think that just shows the downward arc of the Republican Party.
