Trump is just a hot mess... the Jerry Lewis of Presidents.

I don't know which one is worse or could do the most damage,
But I suspect it's the stupid one.

his pay grade. In any choice between ideology and ignorance, I can live with ideology.
Sure, Cheney was responsible for huge number of deaths and unimaginable levels of destruction but Trump will surpass him IMHO.

Trump just messes with people to sate his desires. The latter is worse, much worse.

Cheney does - I may not agree on them and think he is awful and all he stood for, but he had his principles and philosophy and stood by them.

Trump has none. No moral compass no integrity. Erratic and unstable.

Trump: Evil, out of his fucking mind, and couldn't find his own ass with both hands.

I'll go with Darth Vader over Girth Vader.
