That's probably why some libs think we like Trump, because we don't share the view that he's an aberration, or uniquely bad. He's just a republican. And they can't accept that

I think the most revealing thing to ask a lib is who was worse, second-plane or trump-moist . The sheer body count difference, there's no way a kind, non-fascist person could ever think it's even close.

It's absolutelty the best test.

Trump winning the election almost immediately rehabilitated Bush for libs. Which is all about optics and civility bullshit.

Why they think the deaths of something like 2 million Iraqis is more civil than a grotesque TV show host being gross - now that's what's interesting!

The deaths and displacement of millions ot Iraqis and Afghans are not an affront to their ideology. That does little or nothing to their fundamental beliefs and assumptions about America. But a grotesque, an "unqualified" reality TV star, a con man becoming President, and then having the audacity to be "unpresidential" - to disrespect the office - that to libs is real shit. That shakes their belief system to the core. That's the only calculus that makes Bush better than Trump
