    Hmmm. That’d be a really fun point to argue.

    George W. and Cheney for lying about WMD to get us into a war that cost billions (was it a trillion?) of dollars and tens of thousands of American lives?

    Clinton for welfare “reform” and NAFTA, which made working class and poor people considerably less well off (though maybe that was inevitable)?

    Nixon for lying and turning the presidency from an institution of relative trust to an institution of relative contempt?

    LBJ for Vietnam?

    Robert E. Lee and Jeff Davis for, you know, actually being traitors?

    Trump’s thirst for power is awful, and our country is much worse off. The question is whether he did the damage, or whether he just allowed the damage to escape from the shadows, or whether that makes a difference.


  • I didn’t say that. Because Joe had some docs in his garage with his Camaro and Hillary didn’t get “locked up” even though she “destroyed” 30,000 emails, conservatives think that Trump can literally flush documents down the toilet, lie to federal officials, brag about having classified documents, and let them sit in the shitter because “the dems have done worse… by the way Hunter Biden!” I don’t think most conservatives want Trump to give secrets away (though they’d probably say they weren’t secrets anyway because he “thought” about declassifying them while he was president and therefore they were declassified), they don’t care.
