18. Reagan and Dubya were amiable but clueless (although Ronnie should have known better).

Reagan was apparently over-impressed by his wealthy, right wing father-in-law. Bush Jr. had been raised in such a bubble that he was clueless about normal folks (making fun of a death row inmate was his cruelest act, but oddly lacking in everyday normal understanding). Trump? Completely another piece of work and truly scary. He DID start out on third base and thought he'd hit a home run(credit the late Molly Ivens). Trump doesn't act or react like a mentally healthy person. He's so obviously unstable that only a desperate society would accept him..and that's frightening . Things are getting desperate and many aren't handling it in a rational way.
