But I disagree with the concept of being able to compare Trump to Bush.

Bush followers (generally) had some intelligence and some ability to see the truth. MAGA is a different breed entirely. They are ignorant, easily led, easily riled up, and they think Trump was sent by God to cleanse the world. Big difference in my opinion. They will gladly send their sons and daughters to die for their perceived, God-sent, icon.

If you are counting on ANY Republicans to stand up to Trump at this point, you are expecting something that I don't believe is ever going to happen. We are beyond that point at this stage of the game.

Thanks for the exchange. Have a great rest of your day!
