Then I gotta ask this -- do you think this presidency is no worse and no more harmful than George W's?If conservative policy is what you think is harmful, and Trump's lies, bombast, erratic behavior etc. rate a "meh", I take it your main problem is not with the Trump administration in particular, but with conservatives.
That is not my main problem. And while We was not my favorite president by a long shot, I'd take him or any of our former living presidents back in a heartbeat over Trump.
I don't think the harm here is with conservative policy. I think the harm here is with the current GOP policy -- which is, apparently, either praising Trump or making excuses for him, with the exception of a handful of Congress people who are either not seeking re-election or dying.
So, yes, I blame the GOP and their apparent policies as the problem. I'd take W over Trump on policy, hands down. W's demeanor would be an extra most welcome benefit.
