39. Bush was horrendous but I would take him over Trump any day of the week

Bush at least knew how to play the game and had a vague idea of how the government worked. And he never started a nuclear war because someone criticized his hair. Its like the difference between dealing with a member of the mafia and a crazed naked lunatic with a knife. He was a corrupt, fucking idiot that was only in government to help his friends and to steal as much money as possible. You can't play the system if the system suddenly falls apart. Bush and his lackeys knew how to at least keep things functioning at a minimal level so they could exploit it. He knew how to play the system, trump wants to destroy it and everything else because he has severe insecurities caused by his daddy not giving him enough hugs. I could see how bush could squeak out "wins" twice against rather anemic democratic campaigns but trump is a different beast. I have no clue how trump could rally enough people to actually win anything.

Trump is playing with fire everyday and likely has burned himself at least a few dozen times already.
