What matters is that we went from substance, intelligence, and competence to oafishness, buffoonish behavior, and viciousness.

And scared the shit out of her.

When she recovered her wits she yelled at him for being so frightening looking and scaring her.

"Well, ma'am, I cant do anything about how I look" said Lincoln.

"You could stay home"


Anyway, to be sure, Obama has style coming out the wazoo and Trump is a classless, tie-taping Ogre.

Still, that is far from the most salient difference between the two.

What jumps out at me is the difference between the thoughts of someone intelligent, clever, witty, and who clearly knows what they're talking about, and some pompous, self-regarding smarmy shit who is in love with the sound of his own voice but invariably doesnt actually say anything of actual substance.

Cant get much more contrast than that!
