GBS Pledge Week

2nd Amendment posted:

Andrew "literal genocide" Jackson wins for WOAT but Reagan is absolutely thr worst modern president followed by W. Trump, while terrible, isn't even in their league let alone able to surpass them. It's a talented high schooler going against the NBA.

Any judgement that puts Reagan at the worst modern has to be mostly about his lasting cultural damage, which Trumpism seems likely to equal.



It's funny how Nixon is being elevated by the march of history to "well, other than the crime stuff..."

When he won the primary it was the apotheosis of the goldwater wing of the party.

And when Trump got elected it was the apotheosis of the Heil Hitler wing of the party.

But anyways in order to say that Regan was worse than W, you're saying that Reagan was worse than a guy who lied to start an unnecessary war that killed millions. So it's gotta be about longer term culture damage. And I'm just saying it's too early to tell with Trump, but he could easily be worse than Reagan. A fascist overthrow of the government would in fact be worse than racism.
