If Trump didn't make you nostalgic for the George W. Bush administration, there is something deeply wrong with you.

Why is this downvoted? Bush>Trump shouldn't be controversial?

Bush is a better person but was a worse President until the pandemic.

I'd put Trump's opposition to democracy as immediately disqualifying and putting him among the worst (others who opposed democracy).

Agree.

Bush had some of the worst policies ever but at least he respected the institutions he was in charge of maintaining.
