My narrative is that Trump is the imaginary cudgel Democrats wield against voters in order to justify their cushy do-nothing jobs, collect donations, insider trade, and pretend they stand for something. It’s all theatre. In reality they either don’t care what he does or agree with him, because if they cared then something might actually change.
OK, so you’re really gonna say he didn’t do anything bad. Cool.
Yeah, straw men are really easy to beat up. I’m saying no damage he did was irreparable by a president or party that actually wanted to fix it.
Unrelated, how do you feel about Mao or Stalin? Just curious.
All leaders are a mixed bag. Stalin is why Hitler is dead and the Nazis were defeated but also why gay rights in the Soviet Union got set back. Mao killed off much of the horrendously abusive landlord class (which was somewhat similar to a minor nobility in China) but was a bit of a Luddite. His struggle sessions were also incautious enough that even the future General Secretary of the party, Deng Xiaoping, was caught up in one.
