Trump’s behavior is not “weird”; it’s standard American politics.

It's not. I remember all the presidents since Nixon. The stuff Treason Trump did is an order of magnitude worse than anything that came before.

Funny that you post that in a comment section where the OP is literally about Reagan also committing treason.

Reagan did not try to overthrow democracy. He didn't conspire with Russia against America. He didn't try to blackmail a foreign power into dishonestly interfering with a US election. He didn't retain 60 boxes of classified secrets after leaving office. He didn't sexually assault 26 women. He didn't tell 30000+ lies in 4 years. He didn't say that immigrants were eating our cats and dogs.

And despite not doing any of that he still inflicted massive generational harm to the United States. As bad as Trump? Only time will tell.
