    You have grossly misread the intent of that comment, chief. She's saying that putting Trump in top 5 worst (atm) downplays America's historical atrocities such as invading Vietnam, killing 20% of the population of North Korea, Iraq war, Afghanistan war, etc

      Sorry, I wasn't looking at it in terms of just the senseless loss of lives, but also how much damage was being done at home. Yeah there's a lot of hard lines there to cross but Trump has made a policy of tearing the nation apart instead of trying to bring people together, and that weighs a lot to me.

        Imagine it being a bad thing to tear apart an evil empire

        If it's about domestic damage, then every president who owned slaves or supported segregation still beats him.

        E: Also every president who was involved in the genocide of the indigenous peoples of America to an extent more than Trump (IE he probably ties Biden and Obama on this).
