Depending on how the next four years go I'm on the fence between Bush Jr. and Trump but I'd like to hear from you

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.

WTF, I love Trump now.

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).

Even by that metric he isn't the worst.
