    The closest thing to a dissenting opinion I have seen in months think's he's merely an asshat, you may believe it is justified but over the last few months this thread has hosted the diversity of opinion of a momentumn rally.

    As for derangement, if you're referring to our hopes that he's impeached, well that just that, a hope.
    I was referring to the person I consider the most wise person here declaring trump to be a threat to democracy. Now I have the next comparing him to AIDS.

    Hope is one thing, desperate as it may be after a year of empty grasping, gross hyperbole is another. This thread is turning into a shrine to peer pressure and confirmation bias, it is frankly a miracle noone has been so insipid as to start declaring Dubya preferable. Yet anyway.

    EU4 is a game company's evaluation of 500 years of history's rulers, they include failures that make bush look like an augustus and suceess that makes FDR look a Commodus. Henry VI earned his 0/0/0 by doing whatever he was told and spending months at a time literally catatonic, not even Carlos II hapsburg or Lois XVI bourbon merited that little.

    By the standards of 1455 to 1836 Trump thus far would be in the league of Henry VIII; 3/3/4

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.
