Now there's a man in want of a mirror.
He ALWAYS projects.
Whenever he looks at other people, he sees himself.
As it happens, I didn't personally dislike Dubya. He had a charming side and a spoiled side. The charming side was fun. I never saw him as more dishonest than Dems, nor as unpatriotic.
Nor did I mistake the bundle of thoughts about who he was for thinking whether he was up to the job, policywise. I think he got better in the last two years when nearly everyone had abandoned him. But 6 years of mistakes under Cheney's influence were too great to recover from.
And, policywise, I'm in a small category of folks who supported his Afghan War, opposed his Iraq War, opposed his torture, but supported his surge. I'd take all the same positions again now as I took then.
Trump is uniquely awful. His crooked character makes him unsuited to the job.
