Compared to Trump? Absofuckinglutely. Bush had no desire to be a dictator. Trump absolutely has ambition to be a dictator, and if you can't figure out how one of those is worse than the other then you're too clueless to participate in an adult conversation regarding this topic.
Just a non-dictatator doing very non-dictatator things like stealing the election, operating secret extrajudicial torture dungeons where people are detained indefinitely without trial, illegally spying on innocent people en masse, and starting multiple wars of aggression.
I wonder how long it will take y'all to start rehabilitating Trump once he's no longer the current thing.
Y'know, maybe if you all didn't spend so many years calling Bush and conservatives all Nazis during that era, maybe people wouldn't roll their eyes the moment you call out actual Nazis nowadays.
It's like you people never heard the story of the Boy Who Cried Wolf or something.
Libs will always believe the "it's not 'Torture' it's 'enhanced interrogation'" until they are the ones being interrogated. Then, suddenly, it's 'torture', and it's everyone else's fault that we got rid of 'enhanced interrogation', not their fault for preserving the system.
LMAO we have innocent people literally being abducted and sent to foreign gulags under conservatives.
Sit down.
