When historians compare the presidency of George Bush and Trump it will be about this.

Who was dumber? Which one was more evil? Which one did more damage to America? You cannot do a worse job of picking presidents than the Republican voters, even if you tried. It's fucking unbelievable.

Never forget how stupid and evil Bush was. One of the worst presidents in history, period. That's not just my opinion, that's a historical fact.

Just a reminder: He failed to protect us on 911. There were warnings.

Torture, which means war crimes.

Invaded Iraq and took it over for a reason that did not exist. They lied.

They tried to cover up how Pat Tillman died, friendly fire.

Failed to kill Bin Laden, they had seven years to get him and they failed. That was a major failure.

Destroyed the lives of tens of thousands of our soldiers over a lie.

Katrina.

Second largest economic disaster in American history.

My god, I could go on and on. Never forget what a fucking disaster Bush was.

who were NOT evil.

Eisenhower and Ford.

Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Bush, and now Trump have all been evil jerks.

Two of that group were possibly the two stupidest people to ever be elected, Bush jr. and Trump. Both lost the popular vote.

Bush didn't betray his country to a foreign enemy, and we still had a functioning government which allowed Obama to win and rebuild.

Trump is orders of magnitude worse. He is a catalyst for total corruption, internal destruction and chaos.

Hundreds of thousands of deaths.

Trump is hell-bent, under Putin's orders, to destroy our democracy and in turn, the balance of powers across the globe.
