Distortedreasoning Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 ah ok. i can pretty much say anyone in the democrat or republican party is someone we dont want. remember that obama was really smart but pretty much just continued many of the same policies from bush. and trump is continuing many of the same policies. i mean he's outright attacking everyone, but end result is the same.

After the latest set of warmongering appointees and reauthorization of the Patriot Act which is almost definitely going to be abused again, it's only a matter of time. If anything the scandals are more akin to Bill Clinton's less than savory conduct raping women, though Trump is so old at this point I doubt he's doing it in the Oval Office.

Also, one way in which the Trump presidency is unlike the Nixon one- when Nixon was under investigation and fired swaths of people, it was called the Saturday Night Massacre and led to his resigning. Under Trump, that happens every Friday. Also, Nixon wanted the US to have a socialized healthcare system like the rest of the developed world was adopting at the time. Shows you how far right the government has shifted.
