      I agree with both of these but would add an undeniable 3rd: Trump is so so so bad that *even* loathsome war criminal Bush looks 'good' now.https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/921367486636920832 …

      2 big reasons Bush is being rehabilitated: 1) most elite institutions supported his crimes; 2) their architects work in biggest news outlets https://twitter.com/KateAronoff/status/921090590812573696 …

      The Iraq War was worse than anything Donald Trump has done (so far).

      You're underestimating what Trump can be capable of if he's confronted with a major terrorist attack in the U.S.

      Exactly. There's no doubt that trump would be a worse post-9/11 president than Bush or even Cheney. A deranged, violent white nationalist.

      Chris' tweet was limited to what has actually happened in reality, not future speculation. But "no doubt" is way, way too strong.

      Replying to @ggreenwald @s_saeen

      Respectfully, I don't agree. Do you believe Trump would visit a mosque and say Muslims are peaceful after a 9/11 on his watch? Seriously?

      The liberal consensus at the time of both Iraq & Katrina was Bush & Cheney were inveterate racists. Do you feel that consensus was wrong?

      A question back at you: do you really believe Bush and Trump hold the same views re white nationalists, KKK, neo-Nazis? Same approach?

      This is a strange argument. Bush was grotesque. Trump is a vulgar bigot who might do worse! But he hasn't yet. Can we all shake on this?

          Can we also agree never to call Bush 'good' even in comparison to Trump because that is meaningless ?

          Caveat: Trump has killed more people in his first 9 months of office than Bush. But Bush had 9/11. Thank God Trump hasn't had his 9/11. Yet.
