It's barely even close. Everything that was horrible about Trump was presaged by Bush. He unleashed far more harm on the world than Trump did.

    Every fucking leftist worth his or her salt correctly saw the roads paved by the Bush administration and were appalled by what was surely to come. The Trump administration proved most of them to be correct.

    I agree.

    I’m telling you now what has been paved by the Trump administration and you’re giving me 8th grade level philosophy in return.

    I get where your frustration is coming from. Trump's abasement of the norms will become the new normal, as it was under Bush. If we were to apply a historical materialist lens to Bush and Trump, the future should be obvious (Republicans will become more aggressive in enacting minority rule and continue hoarding capital).

    I just didn't get all that from your first post.

    you’re giving me 8th grade level philosophy in return.

    Seems unnecessary.
