He comes off as a likable, smart, cool guy, unlike Trump, Mitt and other RepubliCONS in congress. So it's hard to disapprove of the destructive trade deals he's done, the anti-Union meme he promotes, the pro tax cuts for the rich while offering austerity for the rest of us neocon ideals he pushes. Then he throws us liberals a bone now and then with pro LGBT, and immigration.

Didn't most of the RepubliCON base love the bushes too, at least until he left office? At least the bushes were doing RepubliCONS things. If he had only been more liberal, he would have pushed the country to the liberal side instead it gets more and more RepubliCON.
